Sonakshi Sinha reveals how she landed her ‘Dabangg’ role
Sonakshi Sinha shares the surprising story of how she was cast in 'Dabangg' after a chance encounter at Amrita Arora's wedding.
On Tuesday, Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty, accompanied by her husband Raj Kundra and her mother, made a heartfelt visit to the renowned Lalbaugcha Raja pandal in South Mumbai. This visit came shortly after Shetty bid a warm farewell to the Ganpati idol she had welcomed into her home for Ganesh Chaturthi.
Dressed elegantly in a traditional saree and walking barefoot, Shetty was a picture of grace as she approached the pandal. Her husband Raj Kundra matched her traditional attire, also opting to walk barefoot, reflecting the couple’s deep respect for the occasion.
They carried a large modak to offer to Lord Ganesha. The visit to Lalbaugcha Raja followed a spirited Ganpati visarjan ceremony held on Sunday, where Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra, and their daughter Samisha participated in the rituals. The actress was actively involved in performing aarti, playing the drums, and dancing to the lively beats of the dhol.
