Wamiqa Gabbi Celebrates Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj's 60th Birthday With A Heartwarming Photo

Last Updated: Actress Wamiqa Gabbi wished filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj on his 60th birthday, sharing a picture from the shoot of Charlie Chopra & The Mystery of Solang Valley. As filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj turned 60, actress Wamiqa Gabbi, who has worked with the director in Khufiya, Charlie Chopra & The Mystery of Solang Valley, and a segment in Modern Love Mumbai, wished her 'guru". Wamiqa took to her Instagram stories section, where she shared an adorable picture featuring the director-actress duo. The picture showcased Wamiqa and Vishal in a snowy outdoor location. The filmmaker is smiling and could be seen making a bunny ears gesture with his hands over his head. Wamiqa had her hands placed on the filmmaker's shoulders and smiled sweetly at the camera. The picture seemed to have been taken during the shoot of the series Charlie Chopra & The Mystery of Solang Valley, which is based on a crime mystery novel by Agatha Christie, The Sittaford Mystery. For the caption, Wamiqa wrote: 'Happy Birthday @vishalrbhardwaj sir #GuruPurnima." Vishal is known for his work in Hindi cinema, and is the recipient of nine National Film Awards. He is known for films such as Makdee, Maqbool, Omkara, Haider, Kaminey, 7 Khoon Maaf, Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola, Ishqiya, its sequel Dedh Ishqiya and the drama thriller Talvar among others. Talking about Wamiqa, she was last seen in the Rajkummar Rao-starrer 'Bhool Chuk Maaf," a fantasy romantic comedy film written and directed by Karan Sharma. The film followed the story of Ranjan, a small-town romantic boy from Banaras, who lands a government job to marry Titli but forgets his vow to Lord Shiva-only to be trapped until he fulfils his promise. Her next is 'G2' with Adivi Sesh and Emraan Hashmi. The film will release on May 1, 2026. The project further boasts a stellar cast with Banita Sandhu, Murali Sharma, Supriya Yarlagadda, and Madhu Shalini in prominent roles, along with others. Along with the release date, the makers have also dropped the first look poster of Sesh, Hashmi, and Gabbi from the forthcoming action spy thriller.

My BIGGEST. Exploding worldwide MAY DAY! May 1, 2026 In Theaters. #G2 #Goodachari2." Made under the direction of Vinay Kumar Sirigineedi, 'G2" is being produced by TG Vishwa Prasad's People Media Factory, in collaboration with Abhishek Agarwal's Abhishek Agarwal Arts, and AK Entertainments.

Dhanush's Praise For Ex-Wife Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth Viral Amid Mrunal Thakur Dating Buzz: 'I Like Her…'

Last Updated: Dhanush, rumoured to be dating Mrunal Thakur, once said he married Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth for her warmth and individuality —not her famous surname. Long before Dhanush dating Mrunal Thakur rumours made headlines, the south superstar had spoken candidly about the heartwarming reasons he fell in love with ex-wife Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth. In an old interview with ETimes, he explained that it wasn't her iconic surname but her grounded nature that captured his heart. Reflecting on their arranged marriage in 2004, Dhanush had said, 'I don't see her like that. I like her simplicity. If you think her father is simple, meet Aishwaryaa. She is 100 times simpler than her father." Spanning 18 years together until their separation in 2022, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa have two sons: Yatra (born 2006) and Linga (born 2010). Their relationship, often careful to stay out of the spotlight, surprised fans when it officially ended in November 2024. On January 17, 2022, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa took to their social media handles to announce their divorce, ending their 18 years of marriage. The statement read, '18 years of togetherness as friends, as a couple, as parents, and as well-wishers to each other… The journey has been one of growth, understanding, adjusting, and adapting… Today, we stand at a place where our paths separate… Aishwaryaa and I have decided to part ways as a couple and take time to understand ourselves as individuals for the better. Please respect our decision and give us the privacy we need to deal with this. Om Namashivayaa. Spread Love." On August 1, a viral video captured the actor holding Mrunal's hand at her birthday party. Adding fuel to the fire, just hours earlier, Dhanush was also seen flying to Mumbai to attend the special screening of Son of Sardaar 2, which stars Mrunal alongside Ajay Devgn. A video from the event, shared widely on X (formerly Twitter), captured the duo in conversation. Mrunal can be seen leaning in to whisper something to Dhanush, sparking even more curiosity among fans. 'Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur are dating?" one caption read, triggering a range of fan reactions. On the work front, Dhanush is gearing up for Tere Ishk Mein opposite Kriti Sanon, slated to release on November 28. Mrunal's latest film, Son of Sardaar 2, hit theatres on August 1.
