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.
Producer Boney Kapoor got teary-eyed while accepting Akkineni Nageswara Rao (ANR) Award on behalf of his late wife and eighties Bollywood superstar Sridevi.
Bollywood veteran Rishi Kapoor is upset because he feels the government does not treat the artistes' community well. He feels artistes are not honoured enough in India, the way it happens abroad.
Tanushree Dutta may not have announced a new film in a long time, but the actress sure believes in staying in shape. Lately, she has been spending a lot of time working out.
Tanushree, who kickstarted the Me Too campaign in Bollywood in 2018, in a recent interview said that she wanted to "stand up, raise my hands up and applaud Sona Mohapatra" for her guts to speak up against Malik.
Former beauty queen Manushi Chillar gave the first shot for her debut Hindi film "Prithviraj" on Monday. It was a "beautiful coincidence", she noted that she gave her first shot for the film on the same day she was crowned Miss World two years ago.
