Rakul slams rumor about getting house gift from politician
Actress Rakul Preet Singh, who has transitioned from South cinema to Bollywood post her marriage, recently addressed one of the strangest rumors she has encountered in her career. In a candid interview, the De De Pyaar De actress recalled a widely circulated rumor in Telangana that claimed a prominent politician had gifted her a house. Though Rakul didn't name the politician, the speculation had earlier linked her to ex-Telangana minister KTR. Speaking about it, Rakul said, 'The weirdest rumor is that my house was gifted to me. But the truth is, my father did all the paperwork and bought it. He was extremely hurt that people would say such things when it was our hard-earned money.' Rakul also revealed that her father was upset enough to urge her to respond publicly. 'He asked me to give a clarification, but I told him I can't keep reacting to every false rumor,' she added. At the time, her father even issued a press statement to counter the speculation. On the professional front, Rakul is gearing up for the release of De De Pyaar De 2 and the much-anticipated Indian 3. Though her presence in Telugu cinema has lessened, her Bollywood journey continues to pick up pace.

Actress Rakul Preet Singh has given fans a glimpse into her morning skincare routine , and it's as minimal as it is effective. Taking to Instagram, the 34-year-old star shared a video showing her unconventional yet accessible beauty tip: dipping her face in ice-cold water first thing in the morning. The video, which quickly went viral, is titled 'Ek thanda jhatka, roz subah ka,' and Rakul captioned it with a reminder that "skincare is serious business." In the clip, Rakul, dressed casually in a white tank top and denim jeans with her hair tied up in a bun, is seen immersing her face in a bowl of ice-cold water. She explains, 'So my morning routine is what I start before I do makeup, it's cold water, ice cold water, and we go.' According to the actress, this daily ritual helps to instantly wake up her skin, reduce puffiness, and leaves her feeling refreshed and energized to start her day.

During an 80 kg deadlift, she suffered a back spasm, an injury that significantly impacted her routine. Appearing at the Lakme Fashion Week's Magnum Lounge, she opened up about how the experience taught her the importance of slowing down. 'The injury really did do a setback. I feel like it's been 4 months, and I'm still not at my optimal yet. I still need to be very careful with a lot of things, but every day is better,' Rakul shared with ANI . She admitted that the recovery forced her to let go of timelines and expectations. 'I remember that within the first week, I surrendered. I was like, OK, it's going to take its own time, and I have to be OK with letting go of certain things, letting go of certain work commitments, and then I bounced back stronger and completed the shoot of my film.' Looking Ahead Though she continues to manage her recovery with care, Rakul is back at work and gearing up for her next release. She will be seen next in De De Pyaar De 2, directed by Anshul Sharma and produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Luv Ranjan, and Ankur Garg. Rakul's openness about both her beauty regimen and physical setbacks offers a refreshing look into how celebrities balance their personal well-being with professional commitments.

Rakul joins Ajay Devgn, R Madhavan in ‘De De Pyaar De 2'
Rakul Preet Singh is all set to reprise her beloved role as Aisha in De De Pyaar De 2, the much-awaited sequel to the 2019 romantic comedy hit. Starring alongside Ajay Devgn, who returns as the middle-aged man caught between love and family drama, the sequel introduces R. Madhavan in a key role, sparking curiosity about a fresh twist in the love triangle. While the original film, directed by Akiv Ali, won over audiences with its mix of humor, emotion, and an unconventional romance, the sequel will be helmed by Anshul Sharma. The film is backed by T-Series and Luv Films, and is scheduled to hit theatres on 19 September 2025. Fans are eager to see how Madhavan's entry will stir things up in the narrative, possibly challenging the equation between Aisha and Ashish (Ajay Devgn). Rakul's character had won hearts in the first part for her charm and spontaneity, and expectations are high for her performance once again. Off-screen, Rakul recently turned heads with her bold fashion statement — a denim-on-denim look paired with high boots — adding to the buzz surrounding her upcoming projects. With recent setbacks like Mere Husband Ki Biwi and Indian 2, De De Pyaar De 2 is being seen as a potential comeback for the actress. Fans are hopeful this sequel will recreate the magic of the original and give Rakul the box office success she richly deserves.
