So, thank you Raju Sir, thank you Sid and especially Atlee Sir and his team for giving me the opportunity in his film 'Jawan' and trusting me to deliver and be worthy of this award.

'I feel guilty': Christian McCaffrey can't stop admiring Olivia Culpo's strength in emotional message after baby's arrival
Christian McCaffrey opens up on Olivia Culpo's postpartum journey (Getty Images) Amidst the rigors of NFL training camp, Christian McCaffrey is finding inspiration far beyond the gridiron. The San Francisco 49ers running back recently opened up about life as a new dad and offered a touching tribute to his wife, Olivia Culpo , following the arrival of their daughter, Colette Annalise McCaffrey, born on July 13. While McCaffrey may be battling defensive lines, at home, he says it's Culpo who's doing the heavy lifting. Christian McCaffrey hails wife Olivia Culpo as 'real MVP' in touching tribute after birth of their daughter As Christian McCaffrey returns to training camp, he gave fans a glimpse into his journey through early fatherhood and his admiration for Culpo's resilience. 'She's been great. She's been so cool… I feel guilty at times,' McCaffrey admitted. 'I'm sleeping well in the hotel bedroom while she's doing the dirty work, but super thankful for it—and she's doing an incredible job.' While he trains with the 49ers, Culpo remains home caring for their newborn, supported by both families who've stepped in to help the first-time parents. Their joint announcement on social media revealed the birth of Colette, accompanied by intimate photos—one especially moving image captured McCaffrey holding Culpo's hand during her C-section, a moment that echoed their unwavering bond. Culpo, 33, hasn't held back her appreciation either. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Elegant New Scooters For Seniors In 2024: The Prices May Surprise You Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Learn More Undo In a heartwarming Instagram story, she called McCaffrey the 'best daddy in the world,' adding, 'We're going to miss him so much,' along with a crying emoji, as he headed off to camp.

Culpo had been candid about her physically taxing pregnancy. Back in March, she shared on TikTok that she had battled pneumonia and remained on bed rest for nearly a month. Her condition worsened when she was diagnosed with a subchorionic hematoma—a bleeding complication that can pose risks during early pregnancy. 'So at this point, I was so exhausted… two weeks of just not being able to move and then all of a sudden just purging,' she said. 'It was a lot. It was heavy… I went to the doctor and it was really exciting to see that there was still a heartbeat.' Through all the exhaustion, fear, and joy, McCaffrey and Culpo have emerged as a team—weathering challenges with grace. While McCaffrey may be chasing another Super Bowl, it's clear who he believes is the real MVP at home. Also Read: Are wedding bells next?

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce appear to be taking a serious step forward in their high-profile romance (Getty Images) Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce appear to be taking a serious step forward in their high-profile romance. The global pop sensation and the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end, both 35, were recently spotted house hunting in the affluent Eastside suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, according to Cleveland Scene. Multiple sources told the outlet that the couple toured 'at least two opulent homes' in June. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce spark rumors of settling down with Cleveland house hunt Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's low-key visit included a lunch date at JoJo's Bar in Chagrin Falls, a cozy neighborhood close to where Kelce grew up. The restaurant's manager confirmed the visit, noting, 'Travis grew up in Cleveland Heights, so he decided to visit somewhere he was familiar with.' While Kelce's roots are in Cleveland Heights, reports suggest he and Swift are eyeing neighborhoods marked by generational wealth and extravagant living. Speculation grows as Kelce eyes retirement and Swift expands her real estate empire Kelce already owns a $6 million mansion in Kansas City, but that property was burglarized last year, prompting security concerns. With rumors swirling about his possible retirement after the 2025-2026 NFL season, Kelce may be preparing for life beyond football. Swift, on the other hand, has an estimated $80 million real estate portfolio that includes homes in Nashville, Tribeca, and Rhode Island—where the couple often retreats for privacy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Stylish New Mobility Scooters Available for Seniors (Prices May Surprise You) Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Search Now Undo Despite recent rumors, Kelce and Swift have not made any joint property purchases yet, and no real estate records show co-ownership.
