Tamannaah Bhatia redefines glamour with her bold take on layering
Actress Tamannaah Bhatia, in her latest Instagram post, spoke about embracing duality in both style and identity. Pairing a black sequined gown with a casual grey t-shirt, she highlighted how contrasting elements can coexist beautifully. The actress also explained that for her, fashion is not just about trends; it's a personal expression where glamour meets comfort and strength meets softness. On Sunday, the 'Baahubali' actress took to her Instagram handle and shared a couple of her stylish photos. She is seen wearing a chic black sequined gown that she teamed with a casual grey t-shirt. In the caption, Tamannaah Bhatia reflected on the power of layering, both in fashion and identity. She shared that while a black sequined gown and a grey t-shirt may seem like they belong to different worlds, to her, they felt like they were meant to meet. The actress wrote, 'The art of layering A black sequined gown and a grey t-shirt may belong to two different worlds — but for me, they feel like they were meant to meet. Because contradiction isn't conflict. It's where masculine edge and feminine instinct find harmony. It's also the art of layering — not just in what I wear, but in who I am. Clothes, jewellery, identity — none of it needs to be singular. Casual glamour isn't a trend. It's my language. And it's always layered.' Known for her impeccable sense of style, Bhatia consistently serves major style inspiration with her striking photos shared on social media. On the work front, the 35-year-old actress is busy filming her upcoming project 'Vvan: Force of the Forest' alongside Sidharth Malhotra. The movie, set against the backdrop of Central India's dense jungles, marks Tamannaah's first on-screen collaboration with Sidharth. The upcoming, much-awaited thriller is set to hit theatres on May 15, 2026. Meanwhile, As SS Rajamouli's epic saga 'Baahubali: The Beginning' celebrates 10 years of release, the team including leads Prabhas, and Rana Daggubati, director Rajamouli and composer M. M. Keeravani got together for an evening filled with nostalgia. The makers dropped a couple of glimpses from the reunion on the official page of the movie. The images were accompanied by an emotional note that read, '10 Years of Baahubali Reunion... What began as a dream turned into something far bigger than any of us could have imagined. A story that became a part of people's lives...A journey that brought us together as one family... And memories we will cherish forever. As we come together to celebrate 10 years of Baahubali, we are filled with deep gratitude — for every single person who believed in this story, stood by us, and helped make it what it is today. This reunion was more than nostalgic — it brought back a flood of memories from over a decade.' 'We fondly reminisced about everything that went right... and all the things that could have gone wrong, but didn't. It's those very moments that ensured Baahubali became what it is today.'

This will be her fourth Wimbledon appearance and she's got a special outfit in store for the highly-anticipated game.' 'The actress is currently in London, enjoying some family time with husband Anand Ahuja and their son, Vayu, so it comes as no surprise that she's going to be making her way to the game this weekend,' added the source. Last month, Sonam celebrated seven years of Ranbir Kapoor's 'Sanju'. To mark the milestone, she took to her Instagram Stories to share a special memory. She posted a video featuring one of her scenes with Ranbir Kapoor from the film, blending it with behind-the-scenes glimpses from the set. 'Sanju,' directed and edited by Rajkumar Hirani, was co-written by Hirani and Abhijat Joshi. The movie explored the turbulent life of Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt, shedding light on his battle with drug addiction, his arrest in connection with the 1993 Bombay bombings, his bond with his father, and his journey in the film industry. Ranbir Kapoor played the titular role alongside actors Paresh Rawal, Vicky Kaushal, Manisha Koirala, Anushka Sharma, Dia Mirza, and Jim Sarbh. Sonam made her comeback to the screen with the 2023 crime thriller 'Blind', in which she portrayed a visually impaired ex-police officer. The film marked her return to acting following a break she took after welcoming her son, Vayu, in 2022. Directed by Shome Makhija, the thriller also starred Shubham Saraf, Danesh Razvi, Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak, Lillete Dubey, and Javed Khan in key roles. 'Blind,'was a remake of the 2011 South Korean film of the same name, originally featuring Yoo Seung-ho and Kim Ha-neul in lead roles. Kapoor, the daughter of actor Anil Kapoor, began her career as an assistant director on filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 2005 film Black. She made her acting debut in Bhansali's romantic drama Saawariya (2007), a box office flop, and had her first commercial success with the romantic comedy I Hate Luv Storys (2010). This was followed by a series of commercial failures and repetitive roles, which garnered her negative reviews. The 2013 box office hit Raanjhanaa marked a turning point in Kapoor's career, garnering her praise and Best Actress nominations at several award ceremonies. Kapoor had her biggest commercial successes with supporting roles in the biopics Bhaag Milkha Bhaag (2013) and Sanju (2018), and a leading role in the romance Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (2015); the last two rank among the highest-grossing Bollywood films.
