Last Updated: Designed by Gaurang Shah, the khadi jamdani lehenga features motifs inspired by the gardens of Taj Mahal. Fresh off the massive success of Sitaare Zameen Par, Genelia's love for Indian craftsmanship continues with an exquisite ensemble designed by celebrated textile designer Gaurang Shah. Known for her love for honouring Indian crafts through her fashion choices, Genelia looked like a modern-day princess in a traditional jamdani lehenga set. Ahead of the release of her latest Telugu film, Junior, Genelia Deshmukh exuded royalty and grace in a Gaurang Shah khadi jamdani lehenga set at the film's promotional event in Hyderabad. Genelia was joined by filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli, Sreeleela and Kireeti Reddy among others. The hand charkha khadi jamdani was woven in Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh and took 18 months to weave. Genelia Deshmukh not only looked surreal in the ensemble but also celebrated the statement piece by posting a series of images of the stylish look on Instagram. The timeless ensemble was from Gaurang Shah's collection Rang Raas, which is a tribute to handmade artistry. The traditional weave, Jamdani which is derived from the Persian words jam (flower) and dani (vase) mirrors the motifs designed on the handwoven muslin fabric. The floral blooms on Genelia's lehenga set are inspired by the Mughal gardens of the iconic Taj Mahal. The woven off-white fabric played the perfect canvas for the multi-coloured woven floral motifs adding a pop of colour to Genelia's traditional style. Styled by celebrity stylists Pranay Jaitly and Shounak Amonkar of Who Wore What When, Genelia's traditional look was further enhanced with handcrafted jewellery pieces from Kishandas & Co. Every heritage statement piece featuring chandbalis, a choker set, kadas and hair accessories added traditional opulence to Genelia's look. Genelia's kohl-laden eyes and braided hair styled with vibrant orange flowers set the tone for the traditional Indian wedding look for brides to be. Genelia's makeup was done by celebrity makeup artist Audrey Sangma and her hair was styled by celebrity hair stylist Jyoti Sawant. Directed by Radhakrishna Reddy, Junior is slated for release on July 18. Beyond Junior, Genelia Deshmukh has an exciting slate of projects lined-up.

Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani requests paparazzi to respect privacy after daughter's birth: ‘No photos please'
After announcing the birth of their daughter, Sidharth Malhotra has taken to Instagram to request the paparazzi to respect their privacy and avoid clicking pictures of their newborn. He also thanked fans and the media for their best wishes and for being understanding during this special time. Sidharth shared a note on his Instagram story that read, 'We're so grateful for all the love and wishes; our hearts are truly full. As we take our first steps into this new journey of parenthood, we hope to enjoy it intimately as a family. It would mean a lot to us if this special time could stay private. So, No Photos Please, Only Blessings! Thank you for your support.' Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra also distributed sweets to the paparazzi along with personal notes requesting them not to click pictures. Their note read, 'Our baby girl is here! Just a little something sweet to celebrate this special moment. No pictures please, only blessings.' In April, Sidharth had lost his cool at the paparazzi for hounding his pregnant wife Kiara Advani. A video that went viral showed paparazzi crowding around the couple's car when they were visiting a doctor and attempting to click their photos. Reacting to their behaviour, Sidharth got visibly angry and said, 'You guys start behaving now. One second, get back, get back! Behave yourself, yaar. You want me to get angry now? One second, boss! Behave yourself.' Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra now join a list of celebrities who have taken steps to ensure their children are not photographed by the media. These include couples like Anushka Sharma-Virat Kohli, Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh, and Rani Mukerji-Aditya Chopra. Kiara and Sidharth tied the knot in an intimate ceremony held in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, on February 7, 2023.

This actress was called Jaya Bachchan's sister, started working at 13, acted in 70 films, 30 TV shows, her name was...
In the world of Indian cinema, there are only a handful of actors and actresses who received unconditional love in both films and TV. Not just that, a cherry on top would be if the actor resembles a superstar—then their popularity grows over time. Something similar happened with this actress whom we are going to discuss today. This late actress has been a part of several prestigious projects, and fans have seen her in both positive as well as grey shades. Actress Who Looks Like Jaya Bachchan? The actress we are discussing often resembles Jaya Bachchan. If all these cues don't ring a bell, then let us tell you—we are discussing the late legendary star Rita Bhaduri. Born on 4 November 1955, this artist made her mark in Hindi cinema with her brilliant acting in many films. She started her career at the age of just 13 with the film Teri Talash Mein. Rita Bhaduri worked in about 70 films and more than 30 television serials. Her major films include Julie, Sawan Ko Aane Do, Raja, Kya Kehna, and Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon. Rita Bhaduri Played All Roles One of the special things about Rita's career was that she played every kind of role—from a supporting mother to grey shades too. Rita received the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award for her performance in the film Raja. Apart from Hindi cinema, Rita also tried her hand in Gujarati cinema. Rita's role in the 1976 Gujarati film Lakho Phoolani was a hit, after which she played many leading roles in Gujarati cinema for the next eight years. After cinema, she turned to TV. Here too, she made a name for herself. Her character of Imarti Devi in the TV serial Nimki Mukhiya is still alive in the hearts of the audience. Rita was known for her cheerfulness even after suffering from a serious kidney disease. After a long fight with her health, she bid goodbye to the world on July 17, 2018.
