Actor Priyanka Chopra’s latest Instagram post is dedicated to her husband-singer Nick Jonas on his birthday.

As Nick turned a year older on Monday, Priyanka took to Instagram and penned a heartfelt note for him, writing, “Happiest birthday to the best husband and dad. You make all our dreams come true .. everyday.. we love you @nickjonas (red heart emoji).” She also shared several visuals from Nick’s birthday celebrations in London.

In one of the images, the trio can be seen posing backstage at Nick’s O2 Arena concert in London. Priyanka looks stunning in orange bodycon dress, while Nick sports a casual look in a blue jacket and trousers with a graphic T-shirt.

Nick also received a sweet birthday wish from his mother-in-law, Madhu Chopra. “Happy birthday to my wonderful son-in-law. You are truly a blessing! So grateful to have you in our family,” she wrote.

Priyanka and Nick got married in a Christian and a Hindu ceremony in Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace on December 1 and 2 in 2018. In January 2022, the two announced that they welcomed daughter Malti Marie via surrogacy.

Meanwhile, on the work front, recently, Priyanka wrapped the shooting of her upcoming film ‘The Bluff’ and shared a glimpse of the wrap-up featuring her family including Nick Jonas, Malti Marie and her mother Madhu Chopra and the cast of the film.

‘The Bluff’ which is directed by Frank E Flowers also features actor Karl Urban.

In a recent interview with ANI in Singapore, ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ actor Ismael Cruz Cordova shared that he is a huge fan of Priyanka Chopra. He also opened up about his experience working with her in the upcoming film ‘The Bluff’.

“Working with the greats is always something that you never know how it’s going to be. Priyanka is an incredible leader..so generous. She’s so cool also. I am a huge fan. She is such a great leader. So charismatic, so loving. She made everybody on set feel great. She keeps her culture so close to her. Her mother and daughter were also on set with us, the whole family dynamics, it really grounds you,” he said.

‘The Bluff’ is set in the 19th-century Caribbean and follows the story of a former female pirate, played by Priyanka, who must protect her family when the sins of her past catch up to her.

Produced by Russo Brothers’ banner AGBO Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, the film promises to be a thrilling adventure.

Apart from ‘The Bluff’, Priyanka is also set to star in ‘Heads of State’ alongside John Cena and Idris Elba.

Actors Malavika Mohanan and Siddhant Chaturvedi are gearing up for the release of their much-awaited film Yudhra. Amid the film’s promotions, they revealed that during the shoot of one of the action scenes, Malavika slapped Siddhant so hard that his jaw almost broke.

During an interaction with ETimes, Malavika recalled, “Siddhant got slapped real bad, we shot for this scene in the first schedule of the film, and we were still building our chemistry. In the scene, my character is pissed with Yudhra’s character, and it was our director Ravi (Udyawar) sir who got extremely excited, and said ‘Arey tu maar’… and the very next moment, Siddhant is sitting with an ice pack on his face.”

“And we broke the ice and my jaw,” Siddhant joked.

Malavika went on to say that it would have looked really fake had she not hit Siddhant in real. The actress also had some intense action scenes with actor Chiyaan Vikram in their latest film Thangalaan.

Meanwhile, the trailer as well as the songs of Yudhra have created quite a buzz on social media. Malavika and Siddhant’s sizzling chemistry in the song Saathiya has also grabbed eyeballs. In another recent interview, Malavika also opened up about shooting intimate scenes with Siddhant.

“It’s not easy to crack intimacy and be comfortable with it. Nowadays, they have intimacy coordinators on set, which is a very good thing. It’s important to know boundaries. The process of intimacy isn’t as simple as just doing it. Coordinators are making it easier. More than the intimacy, what we were concerned about was the cold while shooting for the song. In that video, we had to shoot a couple of intimate moments where we had to kiss. We were against the waves, completely drenched, and it was freezing!

Yudhra is all set to hit the big screens on September 20. Siddhant’s character, who has anger issues, will be seen packing punches as he is on a mission to eliminate a drug lord played by Raghav Juyal. The film also stars Gajraj Rao, Ram Kapoor, Raj Arjun and Shilpa Shukla.

Actor Sohum Shah on Saturday announced a sequel to his 2018 critically acclaimed film, “Tumbbad”, a day after the movie was re-released in theatres. Directed by Rahi Anil Barve, the atmospheric horror drama received critical acclaim upon its release six years ago. It was produced by the actor under his banner Sohum Shah Films.

Shah assured fans that the sequel of “Tumbbad” will dig deeper into the theme of greed. “‘Tumbbad’ has been a special journey and a labour of love for us, and to see the love it continues to receive is overwhelming and only ratifies our belief and ethos of Sohum Shah Films, that content is king.

“With ‘Tumbbad 2’, we want to push the cinematic experience and boundaries even further. ‘Tumbbad 2’ will take audiences deeper into the world we’ve created, with bigger twists and a more intense exploration of what happens when greed knows no limits,” the actor-producer said in a statement.

Set in a Maharashtra village, “Tumbbad” explores Vinayak Rao’s (Shah) descent into greed and obsession as he seeks out a mythical treasure guarded by the malevolent entity Hastar. With the sequel, the makers promise an even more gripping narrative that builds on the dark, mythical universe of “Tumbbad”, the press release said.

“Tumbbad”, which was re-released in theatres on Friday, received a positive response from the audience.
