Who is Ruchi Gujjar? Actress booked for hitting producer with her sandal at Solang Valley premiere
Ruchi Gujjar, an emerging actress and model, is making waves online following a dramatic episode at the premiere of the film Solang Valley. After grabbing attention at Cannes 2025 with a necklace showcasing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's face, she is now in the spotlight for reportedly assaulting producer Karan Singh with her sandal amid a Rs23 lakh financial dispute. The incident has gone viral, leaving many wondering who she is and what triggered the heated confrontation. Who is Ruchi Gujjar? Actress booked for hitting producer Ruchi Gujjar is an Indian actress and model hailing from Mehara Gujarwas village in Rajasthan. A graduate of Maharani College in Jaipur, she belongs to a traditional Gujjar family where women rarely pursue careers in entertainment. After being crowned Miss Haryana 2023, she shifted from modeling to acting and gained popularity through music videos such as Jab Tu Meri Na Rahi, Heli Mein Chor, and Ek Ladki, in which she appeared with actor Aman Verma. At the 78th Cannes Film Festival, she made headlines for wearing a striking necklace featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi's face, complemented by a traditional Rajasthani gold lehenga and Bandhani dupatta. Why did Ruchi hit the producer at Solang Valley premiere? On July 24, 2025, Ruchi Gujjar lodged an FIR at Mumbai's Oshiwara Police Station, alleging that producer Karan Singh Chauhan and the So Long Valley team defrauded her of Rs 23 lakh by falsely promising a TV project, a share in profits, and screen credits, all of which never came through. The following day, during the film's premiere, she confronted the producers, slapping and hitting them with her sandal, a moment that was captured on video and quickly went viral. Accompanied by protestors demanding the film's release be halted until she was paid, Ruchi now faces charges under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including assault, criminal intimidation, and obstruction, according to NDTV. Gujjar's lawyer stated that a separate FIR for assault would be filed against Karan Singh at the Amboli police station. In response to the incident, director Man Singh accused Ruchi Gujjar of orchestrating a 'publicity stunt.' He claimed that Gujjar had previously attempted to halt the film's release, but the court ruled in the makers' favour and allowed it to go ahead. 'Ruchi Gujjar and Karan Singh are well acquainted. If she truly paid any money to Karan for the film, she should present proof. This is nothing more than a publicity stunt,' he added.

'Excuse Me, I'm Talking': Shweta Bachchan Snaps At Navya During Talk Show; Reddit Says 'Aishwarya Must Be…'
Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan's chat on Navya Nanda's show went viral, sparking Reddit debates about Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's relationship with her in-laws and family dynamics. Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan's candid conversations on Navya Nanda's talk show often go viral on the web. It was during one such moment when Shweta snapped at her daughter for interrupting her while she was trying to make a point. The clip is going viral on Reddit, and as expected, social media users brought up Aishwarya Rai Bachchan into the conversation. The video clip started with Jaya Bachchan expressing her concern over how there is too much information on everything nowadays. Shweta tried to pick it up from there when her daughter, Navya, interrupted her. Shweta sternly told her, 'Excuse me, I am talking. Please don't cut me off." Navya immediately apologised. However, Reddit users seemed divided. While some commented on how Aishwarya deals with her in-laws, others found the conversation quite normal. 'I'm getting anxiety imagining myself as the bahu of that household already. And I am a man," wrote a user, supporting Aishwarya. 'Imagine coming out from an physically abusive relationship to get married in a mentally/emotionally toxic max family. Bhagwan ne sundarta di toh sukun nahi diya," wrote another. Other users wrote, 'Imagine if this made to the final cut, how much toxicity had to be edited and removed from the entire bit!!!!!", 'Aish is strong. Strong enough to avoid these 3 completely." Then there were those who called the altercation a regular, normal situation in every household. Supporting the Bachchans, they wrote, 'Why are people pretending like they have never had any arguments like these with their parents or siblings?", 'Tbh this seems like pretty much normal family argument like me, my mother and my nani have arguments like that where we all talk at the same time and didn't let other complete the sentence!", 'I saw this on insta and was disappointed seeing the comments cos everyone was talking about how toxic this is, but for me this is normal cos this is literally how me and mom talk when we sit together." Meanwhile, all through last year, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan have braved divorce rumours. This year, they quashed speculations about their marriage by posting a family photo after a long time. Apart from this, Aishwarya also wore sindoor with her saree look at Cannes 2025, which many thought was her silent response to divorce speculations.

While this claim made waves, not everyone is convinced. The truth of the matter is that Urvashi shared a throwback selfie on Thursday May 29, 2025 along with Hollywood actor, Leonardo Di Caprio. The picture reportedly dates back to their meeting in 2022. It looks like something similar has happened with Urvashi Rautela's Wimbledon 2025 finals visit.

The following videos in the post reveal that Urvashi only captured Kate Middleton as she graced the honouring ceremony post the games from her camera at a distance. This pointed to the fact that she did not really meet her and was only claiming to have done so in her caption. Guess you never know with Urvashi and her claims on the internet. Urvashi Rautela is thrilled to meet Kate Middleton at Wimbledon, except did she really meet her?
