When Arti Singh Proved She Is Like Every Other Ranveer Singh Fan
Last Updated: Arti's new post from London featured moments of her enjoying her time at Madame Tussauds, a wax museum in London. Although the calendar says June, Arti Singh's heart is stuck back in wintery London when she and her husband Dipak Chauhan had travelled to the city to celebrate the New Year. That's why on Thursday, June 12, Arti took to her Instagram account and posted a series of pictures that did not make it to the gram during her London trip. The latest post featured images of Arti enjoying her time at Madame Tussauds, a wax museum in London. In the pictures, the 40-year-old actress was seen posing with the wax statues of several Bollywood celebrities, starting with Shah Rukh Khan. Dressed in a black T-shirt over grey trousers layered with a long fur coat, Arti tried to imitate King Khan's exact pose for the camera. She also clicked pictures with the statues of Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Hrithik Roshan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Sachin Tendulkar. Her carousel featured a surprising video where she was seen doing the hook step of Tune Maari Entriyaan from the film Gunday in front of Ranveer Singh's statue. She also posed gracefully beside the statues of British Royals, including the late Queen Elizabeth II, the late Prince Philip, the late Princess Diana, King Charles III, and Prince William, among others. In one video, Arti was also seen enjoying a virtual snowfall. Sharing the throwback glimpses from her London trip, Arti, in the caption, wrote, 'Missing London and to see our legends at Madame Tussaud's was so inspiring. London, can u please call me back." Her visit also saw her wearing the dancing heels in front of the statue of Ranveer Singh. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Arti singh chauhan (@artisingh5) Back when she was in London with her husband, Arti praised Dipak for always treating her like a 'queen." In a video posted on her Instagram account, the former Bigg Boss contestant showed that her husband took her for a pampering session at a salon, where she got a fresh cut. It also featured glimpses of their London adventures and ended with Arti excitedly unboxing a Louis Vuitton bag. In the caption of the post, Arti wrote, '2024, you fulfilled all my dreams. Thank you guruji for everything. London was one of the best holidays. 2001, 2017, when I went to London it was different. This holiday, my husband made me feel like a queen. I felt somewhere, some wounds also got healed. 2025, please be kind and lovely like 2024. Dipak Chauhan, thank you for balancing so many things." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Arti singh chauhan (@artisingh5) FYI, Arti tied the knot with Dipak in April 2024 in Mumbai. This year, to mark their first anniversary, the couple renewed their wedding vows in the Triyuginarayan temple in Uttarakhand. First Published: June 12, 2025, 18:45 IST

Call of Duty Black Ops 7 pre-order date leaked online
Image via Activision. After so much anticipation, Activision has finally announced Call of Duty Black Ops 7. During the recently concluded Xbox Games Showcase on June 8, 2025, this highly awaited title was officially revealed with a teaser, which also confirmed the return of none other than David Mason. After 2024's Black Ops 6, we are heading straight towards Black Ops 7 and the probable reason for that might be the former's huge success. The upcoming title is slated to be released in the late 2025, exact release dates to be confirmed later. However, we might have already got the pre-order details. Call of Duty Black Ops 7 pre-order rumored to begin very soon Call of Duty Black Ops 7 was revealed just a few days ago with a 3-minute long official teaser, which gave us the first look at the game along with the return of David Mason, the face of this popular COD sub-series. This teaser also gave us an idea of the setting of the game, an epic return of the franchise's futuristic backdrop, which is set more than 40 years after Black Ops 6 and more than a decade after Black Ops 2. Now, this is a pretty small time span to claim that, but a Twitter user might have gotten the pre-order date of this game, just two days after its official reveal. As per CharlieIntel, this user named Icey somehow got his hands on the official Black Ops 7 poster from GameStop, and according to this fan these retail shops are informed that the pre-order of this upcoming title is going to begin on June 20, 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Now, this information also aligns with a theory which claims that the game is going to get a full reveal on the same date, as this exact date was seen in the 'Cordis Die - A Newer World' YouTube video by Raul Menendez in the Black Ops 2 timeline. This date was also seen in the official key art of Black Ops 7. Even if this happens, then it shouldn't be a surprising fact to the fans as pre-order of Black Ops 6 started on the same day it was first officially revealed, on June 9, 2024. However, as all of these mere speculations and rumors, nothing should be taken for granted and we must wait for the official confirmation from Activision.
