Mumbai, Feb 23 (IANS) Actress-VJ Shibani Dandekar has added husband Farhan Akhtar's last name on her social media account.
She is now Shibani Dandekar-Akhtar on Instagram.
Her bio on the photo-sharing website reads: "Producer, Presenter, Actress, Singer...MRS AKHTAR."
Shibani and Farhan, who had been dating since 2018, tied the knot on February 19 in an intimate affair on the outskirts of Mumbai.
Born in Pune and raised in Australia and Africa, Shibani acted in Farhan's sister Zoya Akhtar's 2015 film 'Roy', starring Ranbir Kapoor.
She started as a singer -- she and her two sisters had a band named D-Major -- before turning into a model and reality show contestant in 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' and 'Jhalak Dikhla Jaa'.
She was also one of the television hosts of the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup held in England and Wales.
A day after Abhishek Bachchan shared that he has started shooting for his next film directed by Kookie Gulati, the actor has revealed the name of the film as "The Big Bull".
Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu says she likes to experiment with her looks and her personal style personifies independence, confidence and beauty with ease and comfort.
Actor-politician Sunny Deol returns to direction after two decades to launch son Karan in "Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas" and, describing the experience as an emotional journey, he says the entire unit became a family. He hopes the feeling got translated to the screen.
Farhan Saeed, a former member of Pakistan's popular band Jal, has slammed Salim Merchant for copying his song "Roiyaan". However, the Indian singer-composer called it a "mere coincidence".
"We were shooting in London and he was doing commentary for the recent World Cup. I met him at that time. We had a very interesting conversation -- in fact we spoke for about two to three hours.
