Shraddha Kapoor, a luminary of Indian cinema, is basking in the twin glories of her recent cinematic success and immense social media following. Her film ‘Stree 2’ is making waves at the box office, and she has recently been crowned the most followed woman on Instagram in India. Yet, amidst these professional triumphs, there’s a personal question that never ceases to hound her: “When will Shraddha Kapoor get married?”
In a recent interaction with Filmy Gyan, Shraddha’s older brother, Siddhant Kapoor, found himself at the center of this frequently asked question. The 40-year-old actor, displaying all the poise one would expect from a supportive sibling, responded, “She will get married when she wants to get married and whenever she is happy getting married. I would be happy then.” His statement underscored the family’s unwavering support for Shraddha’s personal choices.
The speculations about Shraddha’s romantic life, particularly her rumored relationship with writer Rahul Mody, have only intensified the scrutiny. These rumors first emerged earlier this year, bringing the duo into the spotlight. The speculation heightened after they were spotted together at the pre-wedding festivities of Anant and Radhika Ambani in Jamnagar this March.
However, recent developments have left fans puzzled. Shraddha unfollowed Rahul on Instagram, along with unfollowing his sister, his production house, and even his dog. Yet, Rahul continues to follow Shraddha, sparking debates among fans. Have they broken up? Or is this a strategic move, perhaps a promotional tactic for an upcoming project? The ambiguity remains, fueling the rumor mill.
Meanwhile, Shraddha’s professional life couldn’t be more contrasting to her ambivalent personal life. ‘Stree 2’ has catapulted her to new heights, entering the Rs 300 crore club within just a week of its release. Her portrayal in the film has won critical acclaim and massive audience approval, solidifying her status as a leading actress in Bollywood.
On the social media front, Shraddha’s achievement is equally remarkable.
. She recently surpassed Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Instagram followers, amassing over 92 million followers compared to Modi’s 91.3 million. This milestone also makes her the most followed woman in India on Instagram, overtaking global star Priyanka Chopra.
When approached by IANS to discuss her views on social media validation, Shraddha had a refreshing perspective. “I don’t see it as social media validation but I see it as a way of being in touch with my fans and people who have loved and supported me because they have really showered me with a lot of love. I love that I share the regular parts of my life with them.” She elaborated on how she enjoys the connection with her followers, from sharing her love for vada pav to discussing eyewear recommendations.
Shraddha’s comments reflect her grounded personality amidst the whirlwind of fame. “I feel ok someone is going to say something in the comment from which I might get an idea of what I can eat next or next time what eyewear should I get. Someone or the other relates and I love that. I think that it is so refreshing on that medium, on social media, relatability is there with people,” she added.
As she continues to navigate her path in both her professional and personal life, Shraddha Kapoor remains an enigma wrapped in a riddle. Her career is soaring, her fan base expanding, yet the persistent query about her marriage looms large. Whether she plans to walk down the aisle soon or chooses to focus on her burgeoning career, one thing is clear: Shraddha will take this monumental step on her own terms.
In the entertainment industry, where personal and professional lives often overlap in the public eye, Shraddha Kapoor’s story is a fascinating blend of speculation and stardom. As she continues to rise, one can only watch in anticipation, waiting to see how this narrative unfolds. Her fans, and indeed the whole of Bollywood, remain on tenterhooks, awaiting the next chapter in the life of this remarkable actress.
