1. Priyanka Chopra left Mumbai after brother Siddharth’s wedding festivities

On August 27th, Priyanka Chopra posted a video on Instagram from her plane, saying goodbye to Mumbai. In her Instagram story, she told her fans “Goodbye, Mumbai” as she departed India this morning. The renowned figure wrote, “See you soon, Mumbai,” along with folded hands and heart emojis.

2. Dhoom turned 20; Esha Deol wasn’t allowed to ride bikes in YRF movie

Reflecting back on two decades since the release of the iconic action-thriller “Dhoom,” I, as a lifestyle expert, am sharing an interesting tidbit from its making that you might find intriguing. Esha Deol, who brought Sheena to life in 2004, recently opened up about her experience on the film’s sets during an interview with Filmygyan. It turns out that as a cast member, she was not allowed to ride motorcycles – a staple of the “Dhoom” franchise – due to their being considered more valuable than the actors themselves on the YRF sets! Isn’t it fascinating how the production prioritized these machines that added so much excitement and adrenaline to the film?

Esha called bicycles the “stars” of the movie, noting they weren’t allowed to test any old models during production. She went on to share that when filming in Goa, Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra, and John Abraham would ride the bikes after wrapping up work each day, while she enjoyed the chance to hop on one herself. The actress, who is 42 years old, reminisced about these moments.

3. Natasa Stankovic dropped a cryptic message about love after separation from Hardik Pandya

A few days following her split with Hardik Pandya, on August 27th, Natasa Stankovic shared a thoughtful message about love on her Instagram. The message read: “Love is patient and loving. It doesn’t become jealous or arrogant. It doesn’t think badly of others and it doesn’t keep track of wrongs.”

On the 18th of July, Natasa and Hardik made the mutual decision to end their four-year long marriage. They both shared a joint statement on Instagram as they announced their separation.
