Exclusive - The Kapil Sharma Show fame Samriddhi Mehra of twins sisters Chinki Minki on their separation post: We are not having any sibling breakup or divorce, it was for Chhoriyan Chali Gaon
Twin sisters Surabhi and Samriddhi Mehra, popularly known as Chinki Minki from The Kapil Sharma Show , left fans stunned last week when they announced their decision to part ways through a social media post. The news of their separation left many of their fans heartbroken and caught many eyeballs. However, the duo has now clarified that they are not having any sibling breakup or divorce and everything was just for the promotion of their new reality show, Chhoriyan Chali Gaon. Clarifying the post, Samriddhi Mehra of Chinki Minki, explained, "We did not expect such a reaction on the post. We both didn't expect it and we were overwhelmed by the response. Humne socha chalo dekhte hain kya response aata hai. Honestly, it was not in our hands we were asked to post and we did it. The post was purely for the show as we are going as separate contestants in Chhoriyan Chali Gaon. For the first time we will be seen as individuals. We are going together on the show but as individuals to play our own game, so the post was all about that. Chinki-Minki will be seen working together even after the show, we are not having any sibling breakup or divorce. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo We got so many calls, messages that 'oh my god you guys are getting separated', but it was all confidential so we couldn't clarify it to anyone. But now as the promos are out for the show, everyone will understand it was just for the show." Samriddhi revealed that after their announcement, they received numerous calls and messages from concerned people asking about their separation. Some even drew comparisons to the rumored fallout between Neha Kakkar and Sonu Kakkar. She said, "I would say sibling breakup can happen between normal siblings but that bond that twin sisters share is very different and nobody can beat their telepathy. I would say nobody can beat Chinki Minki or separate them and it can never happen in future also. Na koi Kar paaya hai na koi kar paayega. We have come together in this world and we will go everywhere together. I know a lot of people compared our post with Neha Kakkar and her sister's breakup, but I would say our fields are different. Ours was just a promotional post and we did not know it would go out of hand in such a way and people would feel bad. For us also it was a bit heartbreaking and we also felt Arre ye kya hogaya, logon ne itna zyaada soch liye ke we won't work together anymore. We were not able to express it back then but now I'm very happy to disclose that it was just for Chhoriyan Chali Gaon." Earlier on July 3, Chinki-Minki took to their social media account on July 3, 2025 and shared a joint post on their official Instagram handle. In the post they revealed that they have chosen to part ways and would now focus on exploring life individually. TWINS CHINKI-MINKI ANNOUNCE PROFESSIONAL SPLIT -FANS SHOCKED

Two big films are going to release on the same day—"Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari" and "Kantara: Chapter 1". Both movies are coming to theatres on October 2, 2025.

The announcement from Dharma came recently via Instagram, revealing that their romantic comedy starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor will now hit theatres on Gandhi Jayanti , the same date already locked in by the makers of Kantara's much-awaited prequel. About the films This sets the stage for one of the biggest and most unexpected face-offs of the year. 'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari', directed by Shashank Khaitan, promises to be a colourful, emotional, and entertaining Bollywood rom-com. With Dharma's signature style, peppy music, glamorous sets, and a starry cast, the film aims to capture the hearts of urban and family audiences, and the film also features Sanya Malhotra, Rohit Saraf, Maniesh Paul, and Akshay Oberoi. On the other hand, 'Kantara: Chapter 1', a mythological and culturally rooted action-drama directed by and starring Rishab Shetty. It is a prequel to the 2022 blockbuster 'Kantara', which is known for its intense storytelling and spiritual energy, the original Kantara surprised everyone by becoming a pan-India success. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [국가인증] 키성장 인증받은 '이 제품' 2개월치 무료증정 이벤트 곧 마감! 아이클타임 더 알아보기 Undo The upcoming chapter is expected to go even bigger in scale, with large battle sequences and deeper cultural themes, shot at Karnataka. What makes this clash more interesting is how different both films are in tone and appeal. Releasing on October 2, which is a national holiday and the beginning of the Dussehra festive period, both films are aiming to take advantage of the long weekend and holiday footfall. But with both films targeting the same big date, competition for screens, show timings, and audience attention is bound to be fierce. Theatres across India are likely to be buzzing, and box-office reports will surely be closely watched.
