Siddhant Chaturvedi's Mother Proudly Selects Saree For Dhadak 2 Premiere
Siddhant Chaturvedi's mother's heartwarming moment is winning the internet. Siddhant Chaturvedi, who is all set to charm the audiences with his intense performance in his romantic drama Dhadak 2, shared a heartwarming video featuring his mother. The actor took to social media to share an adorable clip of his mom excitedly deciding which saree to wear for the grand premiere of his film, which is happening later today. Her infectious enthusiasm and motherly pride lit up the screen, making the moment instantly relatable and wholesome for fans across the country. In the video, Siddhant's mother can be seen holding up different sarees. The actor shared the video with a caption that says, 'Premiere ke liye साड़ी ka selection chal raha." Recently, the actor revealed that he had already filmed a major chunk of the movie without knowing it would eventually be titled Dhadak 2 — and the first person to break the news to him was none other than Dhadak star Ishaan Khatter. During a recent promotional event, Siddhant shared the unusual anecdote. 'He [Ishaan] was the one who told me before I knew, and I had already shot half of the film by then," the Gully Boy actor recalled with a laugh. 'Without me knowing, and he knows." The surprise revelation happened when Siddhant ran into Ishaan at a film screening. Meanwhile, Dhadak 2 stars Siddhant opposite Triptii Dimri in what's being described as an intense love story. Helmed by debutante director Shazia Iqbal and produced by Dharma Productions, the film serves as a spiritual sequel to the 2018 hit Dhadak, which introduced Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor to Bollywood. Unlike its predecessor, which was a remake of Sairat, Dhadak 2 adapts the critically acclaimed Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal (2018) for Hindi audiences. With a powerful premise, a fresh pairing, and the promise of emotionally charged storytelling, Dhadak 2 is all set to hit theatres on August 1, 2025. With Dhadak 2, Siddhant Chaturvedi is all set to take on the most emotionally intense role of his career — a performance that demands vulnerability, restraint, and raw romantic depth. Known for his effortless charm in Gully Boy and brooding presence in Gehraiyaan, Siddhant is now stepping into a space that will escalate his range as an actor. view comments First Published: July 30, 2025, 19:35 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

After Sitaare Zameen Par Success, Genelia D'Souza Signs New Film
Last Updated: In the clip, Genelia D'Souza is seated while her team styles her hair. Dressed in a simple white top, she radiates natural beauty and happiness. Genelia D'Souza is all beaming with joy as she steps into a brand-new film project and her fans couldn't be happier. Taking to Instagram Stories, the actress shared the super amazing news via a video that gave a peek into her dressing-up session before embarking on the new journey. In the clip, the actress is seated while her team styles her hair. Dressed in a simple white top, she radiates natural beauty and happiness. However, what caught everyone's attention was a short text she added to the story, writing, 'New film = new excitement. Let's go." The message perfectly captures her enthusiasm and fans are already buzzing with curiosity, waiting for details about her upcoming project. The actress did not reveal any details about the film or her role, but the joy on her face says it all. Genelia D'Souza was away from the screens for a while before making her grand comeback to acting with her Marathi debut film, Ved, alongside her husband Riteish Deshmukh. The film opened to a positive response and became the second-highest-grossing Marathi film after Sairat. Her last performance in Sitaare Zameen Par alongside Aamir Khan also won hearts. The film, released earlier this year, received rave reviews and remains one of the biggest openers of the year. Genelia D'Souza On Her Sabbatical During her participation in a panel discussion on women's empowerment at Elle Impact, the actress said that she was discouraged from making a comeback after a 10-year break to focus on her kids and family. She said, 'It's a part of our life. I feel we hype our success too much and stress a bit too much on failure, whereas the impact and intent of your daily life are what truly matter. Being an actor who has worked in six languages, and someone who took a break because I was having babies, I remember people telling me, 'Oh, you want to come back to films after 10 years? It won't work,' but my comeback film became a cult hit. We shouldn't listen to people." Sitaare Zameen Par Coming back to Sitaare Zameen Par, the film is based on the Spanish movie Campeones and serves as a spiritual sequel to Taare Zameen Par – featuring Darsheel Safary alongside Aamir Khan. view comments First Published: July 29, 2025, 12:28 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
