Shraddha is seen sporting the same bangs which she had as a kid once. Not only that, it seems her face has also not changed too much over the years.
"Swipe to see iss look ki planning kis umr se chal rahi hai >>>", she mentioned in the caption.
An adorable Shraddha was seen holding a rabbit as a child. On the other hand, in her present look, the diva was all stylish in a red top, accessorized with several gold chains, gold hoop earrings, complimentary rings, and gold bracelets with evil-eye chimes.
On Sunday, Shraddha savored some yummy 'theple' with the famous lehsun ki chatni, achaar, and dahi.
The true foodie took to her
handle and dropped a couple of photos relishing the appetizing meal in a white spaghetti top and a messy hair bun.
"Mere theple ginne se pehle apni plate mein jhaank lo" (Take a look at your own plate before counting my theple)" the funny caption read.
Work-wise, although Shraddha is yet to announce her next, the reports suggest that she will be working with 'Tumbbad' maker Rahi Anil Barve in her next.
According to the reports, she has locked a multi-film contract with producer Ektaa Kapoor, who will also back the untitled drama.
Over and above this, Shraddha is also reported to be in talks for the upcoming installment of the popular 'Dhoom' franchise. If these reports are confirmed, she will be paired with her '

Viral: Woman finds a working phone in her takeout food; here's what she did next
Image credits: X/@nypost What is the best surprise you would expect when ordering a takeout? That it tastes better than you imagined, is in more quantity than you ordered or has some little freebie dishes with it? Well, an Adelaide woman got the surprise of her life when she found a shocking object at the bottom of her takeout box. In a TikTok going viral on the internet, Shraddha, a woman shared that she had ordered a hotpot from a takeaway shop the previous week. She ate most of the meal at the restaurant but took some home to eat later. When she was picking at the bottom of the container, she noticed something strange. 'I was picking at the bottom, and the container was feeling a little bit weird,' she said in the video. 'So, I kept digging, and at the bottom of the container was a working phone.' She showed the phone that she picked out from a bowl of hot soup and while it may have been working it was already showing a temperature warning. 'I rang the place, and I was like 'Hey I found a phone in my hotpot' and they were like 'Oh yeah we did have a phone missing from one of our chefs',' she continued. 'They were apologizing, and I was like 'no worries, I'll bring it back'.' Not only did the woman return the phone but she also chose to not name the restaurant, saying, 'Everyone makes mistakes.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo A free meal for her kindness Explaining the incident she revealed that apparently the chef had put his phone down in the takeaway container and since it was black, it blended with the surface, thus getting lost inside the hotpot. For her kindness in asking about the phone and returning it, Shraddha received $50 from the restaurant where she had originally paid $35 for the hotpot. Additionally, the chef asked her to inform when she visits again and receive a free hotpot. The woman also added that her eating the hotpot at home was a complete coincidence as she had earlier thought of eating it the next day but felt hungry upon reaching home. Had she followed through and microwaved the meal, the story could have been completely different, she said. Social media reactions While Shraddha's reaction to the incident may have been calm and composed, the netizens felt the complete opposite. Many added how the restaurant got off lightly and that she should have asked them for a "lifetime of free hotpot." Another X user was concerned about the cleanliness of the food with the phone being inside it, writing, "That is literally so gross. He puts the phone down everywhere. Holds it to his face. Touches it after he touches everything Imagine the germs and bacteria she ate 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮"

A battle of supernaturals: Kajol's Maa V/S Sonakshi Sinha's Nikita Roy
Bollywood's horror genre is experiencing a revival, highlighted by the June 27, 2025, clash between Kajol's 'Maa' and Sonakshi Sinha's 'Nikita Roy,' both women-led supernatural thrillers. This face-off reflects a growing trend of blending horror with comedy, folklore, and psychological elements, as seen in the success of films like 'Stree' and 'Shaitaan. On June 27, 2025, the Hindi box office is about to witness a fascinating face-off — one that's not between action heroes or romantic leads, but between two women-led supernatural films. Kajol 's Maa and Sonakshi Sinha 's Nikita Roy are both slated for release on the same day, marking a rare occasion when two horror thrillers with prominent female leads will go head-to-head. Exclusive | Kajol CANDID On Horror Fears and Son Yug's Voice Debut In 'Karate Kids: Legends' While the horror genre in Hindi cinema has traditionally been niche, surviving on loyal but limited audiences, the last few years have seen a gradual revival of interest in supernatural narratives. Thanks to films like Stree (2018), Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022), and more recently Shaitaan (2024), the genre has been quietly reinventing itself, mixing horror with humor, folklore, or psychological thrill. This June's clash is not just a battle between two films, but a reflection of a growing trend in Bollywood's content landscape. The Contenders: Maa and Nikita Roy Kajol, who was last seen in the emotional drama Salaam Venky, returns to the big screen with Maa, a supernatural thriller produced by her husband Ajay Devgn 's banner. Directed by Vishal Furia, he film promises an unsettling blend of familial drama and supernatural horror. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Costco Shoppers Say This Wrinkle Cream Is "Actually Worth It" The Skincare Magazine Undo Kajol, known for her versatility, will be seen in a character grappling with the line between madness and possession. From Shreyas Iyer to Ibrahim Ali Khan: Nutritionist Nicole Kedia Breaks Down Celeb Diet SECRETS On the other hand, Nikita Roy directed by Kussh S Sinha, marks his feature directorial debut. The film stars Sonakshi Sinha in a role far removed from her earlier glamorous or action-oriented avatars. The narrative, interspersed with occult rituals and cryptic folklore, leans heavily into classic horror elements — creaking mansions, shadowy figures, and ancestral secrets. Both films are banking not only on their star power but on the promise of atmospheric horror that appeals to contemporary audiences who have begun to appreciate psychological and supernatural thrillers beyond jump scares. A Growing Appetite for the Supernatural This box office clash arrives at a time when Bollywood seems increasingly fascinated with horror and supernatural themes. The success of Abhay Verma and Sharvari led Munjya, a horror-comedy from the makers of Stree, reinforced the appetite for horror rooted in Indian mythology and folklore. Released last year, Munjya opened to solid numbers and positive word of mouth, proving that audiences are eager for stories that blend scares with cultural references. Moreover, the horror genre's viability was firmly reestablished with the blockbuster success of Shaitaan in 2024. Starring Ajay Devgn, R. Madhavan, and Jyotika, the film dealt with black magic and demonic possession and grossed over Rs 148 crore at the domestic box office. Its sequel, Shaitaan 2 is already in the works. In fact Ajay Devgn is also planning another horror film for his nephew Amaan Devgn who was launched this year with Azaad. Several more projects tapping into the supernatural are in the pipeline. Ayushmann Khurrana 's Thama, a horror thriller based on a legend, is slated for a Diwali 2025 release. Shraddha Kapoor , Rajukkmar Rao, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurrana and Pankaj Tripathi will return in Stree 2, one of the most anticipated horror-comedies of the year. What's Behind Bollywood's Horror Revival? The renewed interest in horror can be attributed to a few factors. Firstly, horror films have always offered producers a low-to-mid budget model with high returns. The genre's inherently immersive nature ensures a theatrical pull, as audiences still seek the collective experience of being scared in a dark cinema hall. Secondly, today's horror films are increasingly driven by narratives rooted in Indian settings, folklores, and superstitions. From the ghost of Stree to the demonic entity in Shaitaan, the genre is localizing its monsters, making them more relatable and hence more terrifying. Thirdly, filmmakers are blending horror with other genres — comedy, thriller, or emotional drama — broadening their appeal. Stree was as much a comedy as it was a horror film, while Shaitaan was a family drama interrupted by an unholy force. This fusion model allows horror films to tap into multiple audience segments. The Star Power Factor While the horror genre often leans on fresh faces or character actors, the current wave sees mainstream stars lending credibility to these films. Kajol, who seldom ventures into horror, choosing Maa suggests the genre's growing clout. Similarly, Sonakshi Sinha or Ajay Devgn or Shraddha Kapoor have also ventured into the space. Actors bring established fanbases and acting heft, which can help draw in audiences who might otherwise be hesitant about horror titles. The promotional material for both films has emphasized their strong performances and atmospheric storytelling, steering clear of campy horror tropes.

'Yuzvendra Chahal Made Her Career': RJ Mahvash's Sharp Retort To Trolls With Proof
RJ Mahvash has been trolled a lot ever since she has been spotted with India spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. She was seen with the spinner at the Champions Trophy this year and then supporting Punjab Kings during Indian Premier League 2025. Mahvash, who herself is a social media celebrity, has already claimed to be 'single' but the fact that she is constantly spotted with Chahal has intensified dating rumours between the two. However, this is not it. Mahvash is even trolled by many on social media, claiming that it is her bond with Chahal that has made her career. She has finally broken silence over the trolls and responded with proof. Mahvash shared a timeline of her career, showing how she progressed over the years with hard work. The post was captioned, ' Jab tak khud ke liye nahi bologe, koi tumhare liye nahi bolega" (If you don't speak for yourself, no one will). View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mahvash (@ 'I've been in this industry since 2019. Come, I'll show you what I've done before all this," she says in the video. A couple of months ago, Mahavash had shared a statement on her relationship status. "I am very much single, and I don't understand the concept of marriage in today's time," Mahvash said during a podcast before explaining her stance on modern-day relationships. "I am someone who would date only when I have to marry. I don't go on casual dates because I will only date someone I want to get married to. I am that person, like in the film Dhoom, who sees his wife and kids behind the bike." "Shaadi ka concept samajh nahi aa raha hai (I don't understand the concept of marriage), so I have put a halt to it," Mahvash further said. In a shock revelation during the podcast, Mahvash also revealed that she was engaged at the age of 19 but had to call it off when she turned 21. Hence, she doesn't rush into anything that doesn't have the promise of a potential future. "I was engaged at the age of 19, and I called it off at the age of 21. Growing up in a small town like Aligarh, our only conditioning was that we needed to find a good husband and get married. That used to be our goal," she added.
