Sonakshi Sinha Slams Mumbai Civic Authorities Over Potholes: 'Shee Yaar... Too Bad'
Last Updated: Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha took a sharp and sarcastic dig at Mumbai's crumbling infrastructure during the monsoon season. As the monsoon season rolls into Mumbai with its usual fury, bringing along familiar tales of flooded roads and crater-sized potholes, Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha has weighed in—with her trademark sarcasm intact. The Dabangg star took to Instagram to share a video of an innovative road construction technology allegedly being used in Germany. This futuristic method enables roads to absorb water, preventing waterlogging and eliminating potholes—something Mumbaikars can only dream of. In her Instagram story, Sonakshi wrote, 'Whaaat??? You don't dig all year every year instead of finding a 'concrete' solution while the city is underwater in the rains?? Shee yaar… that's too bad (sic)." Her cheeky tone was unmistakably directed at municipal authorities who, year after year, fail to address the city's crumbling infrastructure despite repeated public outcry. Sonakshi's comment comes on the heels of yet another monsoon-triggered infrastructural collapse in Mumbai. Areas such as Napean Sea Road and Andheri were submerged under water within hours of the first proper downpour. The chaos led to traffic jams, stranded commuters, and a renewed chorus of criticism directed at the city's civic bodies. Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, too, joined in the criticism. Sharing a video of the flooded Napean Sea Road—home to some of India's wealthiest residents—he wrote on X (formerly Twitter): 'Napean Sea Road, home to India's top billionaires, top ministers & officials, chokes in one shower. So do Delhi, Bengaluru and other cities, year after year (sic)." The uproar only reiterates a growing sentiment among citizens and celebrities alike—that Indian cities, despite their status and stature, remain woefully unprepared for annual weather patterns. Meanwhile, on the professional front, Sonakshi Sinha has a packed slate. She will headline the psychological thriller Nikita Roy, co-starring Arjun Rampal and Paresh Rawal, scheduled to hit theatres on June 27, 2025. Additionally, she has wrapped up filming her Telugu debut Jatadhara, where she stars opposite Sudheer Babu. First Published:

Sonakshi Sinha Says 'I Love To Chipko You' As She Packs On PDA With Hubby Zaheer
Last Updated: Sonakshi Sinha makes a sweet confession about husband Zaheer Iqbal as they gear up for their first wedding anniversary. Sonakshi Sinha, who tied the knot with longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal on June 23, 2024, is basking in marital bliss. As the couple nears their first wedding anniversary, Sonakshi has offered fans a candid peek into their affectionate bond and it's something many wives might relate to. In a recent Instagram story, the Dabangg actress shared a romantic selfie with Zaheer. Dressed in matching black outfits, the couple looked effortlessly stylish. Sonakshi had her cheek pressed against Zaheer's as they smiled into the camera. But it was her caption that truly stole hearts. 'Yes, I love to chipko to you," she wrote an endearing confession that immediately resonated with fans and married couples alike. Known for their playful chemistry, Sonakshi and Zaheer often share glimpses of their love story on social media. After keeping their relationship under wraps for several years, the two finally made it official in 2024 following a seven-year courtship. Since their wedding, the couple has been open about how they support and improve each other's lives. Fans first saw Sonakshi and Zaheer's on-screen chemistry in the 2022 film Double XL, a comedy-drama directed by Satramm Ramani. The film, which also starred Huma Qureshi and Mahat Raghavendra, explored body positivity and friendships, but it was their real-life bond that captured public attention. On the professional front, Sonakshi was last seen in the horror-comedy Kakuda alongside Saqib Saleem and Riteish Deshmukh, which premiered on Zee5. Up next, she will star in Nikita Roy, a psychological thriller directed by her brother Kussh S Sinha. The film delves into mysticism, psychological tension, and human vulnerability, promising a more intense and dramatic role for the actress. First Published:

Operation Sindoor Film Announced, First Poster Out Amid Escalating India-Pakistan Tensions
The image was shared on Instagram. New Delhi: Nicky Vicky Bhagnani Films, in collaboration with The Content Engineer, has officially announced a new film titled Operation Sindoor . The poster for Operation Sindoor features a striking image of a female soldier standing with her back. She is shown in uniform, holding a rifle, while applying sindoor to her hair. The background is filled with visual elements such as tanks, barbed wire and fighter jets flying overhead, reinforcing themes of bravery, sacrifice and nationalism. The title Operation Sindoor appears boldly, with the second "O" in Sindoor replaced by a smear of vermillion. The phrase " Bharat Mata Ki Jai " in tricolour adds to the patriotic tone of the poster. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) The project is inspired by India's swift and strategic response to the Pahalgam terror attack. The film is based on the Indian Armed Forces' real-life operation of the same name, which was carried out on the intervening night of May 6 and 7. The mission targeted nine terror bases located in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK), neutralising several terrorists. The operation's title, Sindoor , carries symbolic weight. In Hindu tradition, sindoor (vermilion) is a sacred symbol of marriage, typically applied by women along the hair parting or as a tilak by warriors before heading into battle. Sindoor in the film's title references the disturbing nature of the April 22 Pahalgam attack, during which terrorists specifically targeted men, some of whom were newly married, based on their religious identity. The cast of the film is yet to be announced. The project will be directed by Uttam Maheshwari and is expected to present a gripping and emotional narrative. Nicky and Vicky Bhagnani previously produced Nikita Roy , a psychological thriller starring Sonakshi Sinha, which is set for a worldwide release on May 30. Directed by Kussh S Sinha, the film delves into mysticism and psychological tension and features Arjun Rampal, Paresh Rawal, and Suhail Nayyar in key roles.
