Kapil Sharma sings romantic track for wife Ginni on his show

Kapil Sharma’s newly married wife Ginni Chatrath graced his show and the ace comedian sang a romantic track for his wife. Ginni could not stop blushing as Kapil sings for her.


He chose an old classic song O Hansini. Ginni, who was seating among the audience cheering and smiling for her hubby.

Popular singers Mika Singh, Daler Mehendi, Hansraj Hans and Jasbir Jassi graced the show.

Kapil tied the knot with his long time girlfriend Ginni Chatrath in a private wedding in Jalandhar. The couple took pheras and wedding vows in the presence of respective families and close friends. The bride looked utterly gorgeous in a red lehenga paired with stunning jewellery. Ginni is accessorised with bridal choora and kaleerein while Kapil wore a green embroided sherwani.

Celebs like Hina Khan, Guru Randhawa, Jassie Gill and others have posted their best wishes for Kapil and Ginni. "God bless you both. All the very best for this new journey and congratulations," wrote Hina Khan.

Sumona Chakrabvarti, Krushna Abhishek, Rajiv Thakur, Bharti Singh and with husband Harsh Limbachiyaa were part of the wedding. The festivities kick-started with mata ki chowki followed by mehendi and sangeet ceremony.

Of the wedding festivities, Kapil earlier told IANS, "We wanted to keep it low key. But Ginni is the only daughter in her family. Her folks wanted the wedding to be on a lavish scale. And I completely understand their sentiments. My mother also wants the wedding to be lavish."

Kapil recently revealed his love story to Bombay Times, “When I started earning well, my mother took my marriage proposal to her family, which got rejected. Her dad sweetly said, ‘Shut up’ (laughs!). Thereafter, I got busy with work, while she pursued MBA in Finance. She kept studying to avoid marriage proposals. At that time, I was settled in Mumbai, and so much was happening in my life. I then realised ki itna kuchh hua hai, but she never disturbed me. Itna patience kisi mein nahi dekha maine (never saw this level of patience in anybody). That’s when I decided that it was the right time to marry.”

Kapil is a gem of a person and very caring. There is no one like him and I can’t find anyone better than him. He is a family man. If he loves his mother and sister so much, it’s certain that he would love his partner, too. He is a star for the audience, not for me. He is still humble the way he was years ago and hasn’t changed at all,” Ginni told the tabloid.

Sara wrote, "Happiest birthday to the best brother in the world. Thank you for always having my back (literally) and tolerating all my nonsense patiently (mostly)."

Talking about her brother and his Bollywood debut, the actress once revealed, “Ibrahim’s 18 and we’re very close. There’s nothing about me he doesn’t know while I know just 10 per cent of his life because he can be somewhat shady (chuckles). My mom, Ibrahim and I are a close unit.”

She added, “He does (want to become an actor) and from what I’ve seen of him on stage, he’ll be a better actor than me. Recently he gave me a page from his play. I’ve no idea if he had got his lines right because I couldn’t take my eyes off his face. He’s that good. But wanting to be an actor and understanding what it’s about and knowing this is what you want to do is a journey. I think he’s 99 per cent there.”

Priyanka Chopra tweets ‘Jai Hind’ post airstrike, Pakistan files petition

Pakistan filed an online petition against actress Priyanka Chopra seeking to remove her as the UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. The reason is Priyanka tweets in support of India after the recent airstrike.


The actress lauded the efforts of the Army and tweeted, "Jai Hind #IndianArmedForces". Her tweet did not impress the Pakistani and they filed petition against the actress seeking for her removal.

The petition reads, "War between two nuclear powers can only lead to destruction & death. As goodwill ambassador of UNICEF, Priyanka Chopra was supposed to stay neutral & peaceful but her tweet in favour of Indian arm forces after they invaded Pakistan airspace shows otherwise. She doesn’t deserve this title anymore," reads the petition as cited by Avaaz.org.

They also tagged the UN and the UNICEF.             

Priyanka is not the only Bollywood celebrities to praise the India soldiers but many Bollywood celebrities took to their social media account and shower praise on the Indian soldiers after the historic airstrike that damaged the terror camps situated in Pakistan.

Sonali Bendre gets teary-eyed while recalling her cancer journey

Sonali Bendre, who successfully battled cancer opened up about how she fights out the disease and what she has gone through physically and mentally throughout her treatment in New York.



“I wanted to be charge of my narrative from the start. When you are a public figure, there are so many narratives that it out there. And suddenly you lose hold of that narrative very quickly. It becomes a different thing all together,” the actor said at the India Today Conclave 2019.

“As I went through the process, I realised that there are so many others that would be going to through it. I wouldn’t be honest that if I said, ‘Everything was sunshine’. It was not, it was painful and you do have to go through it,” she added.

Sonali turned emotional recalling her low phases and said that she learned that one can do nothing but to deal with it.

“Every time I kept thinking ‘Why am I not being positive?’ and then you start feeling ‘Did I do something wrong?’. But there is pain and what can you do about it. “You have to go through that pain. And that’s why I wanted it to be out that there is pain and it is hard. The point is to reduce that time to as minimum and prolong the good time for as long as you can,” the actor said.

Goldie and Sonali are being very honest to their son Ranveer and divulged about her disease to their son.

“Ranveer was on a school trip and I could have sent him back home but I needed to see him. I need to be able to talk to him. That’s the way we have brought him up and we have always been very honest with him. “The only thing that we were hoping was that by not lying to him, one day he will not be lying to us. That he will be honest with us and that was the example we were trying to set.”
