Aditi Rao Hydari on post-engagement bliss: Siddharth’s got my back, always | Bollywood

Hello, darlings! Guess who’s back with the juiciest tidbits from Bollywood? Yours truly, Bollywood Newshound Nisha, ready to spill the beans with my trademark wit and sass. Buckle up; it’s going to be a bumpy ride through Tinseltown! 🎬✨

So, Aditi Rao Hydari is glowing these days, and it’s not just the highlighter. Our girl is riding high both on the screen and in real life. She’s been basking in the applause for her role in Heeramandi, and oh, did I mention she’s ENGAGED to her longtime beau, Siddharth? 💍 Yes, the cat’s out of the bag, and she’s all smiles.

Instagram Announcement Alert! 🥳

Aditi took to Instagram in March to flaunt her new status. Her post read, "He said yes! E. N. G. A. G. E. D." And Siddharth, not to be outdone, posted, "She Said Yes." How original! 🙄

But don’t think for a second that she’s taking a break. Right after the engagement, she dived headfirst into work with Heeramandi, followed by a glamorous stint at the Cannes film festival as a L’oreal brand ambassador. Balancing love and work like a pro, she says, “By enjoying the present. By laughing together and by knowing we are on the same team, regardless of what’s happening around us.” 🥂 Teamwork makes the dream work, eh?

A little birdie tells me that Aditi and Siddharth fell in love on the sets of Maha Samundram back in 2021. They made their official red carpet debut at the screening of Jubilee* last year. Aditi, previously married to actor Satyadeep Mishra (who, by the way, is now happily married to fashion designer Masaba), is now head over heels for Siddharth. She gushes, “I respect his immense talent, his integrity and intentions, both as an artist and as a human being. I know he wants the best for me.” Aww, someone pass me a tissue! 🤧

On Heeramandi Success:

Aditi’s been showered with love for her performance, and she’s loving every bit of it. She credits director Sanjay Leela Bhansali for his artistry and affection, saying, “I am grateful for his invaluable experiences that give me so much appreciation and evolution as an artist.” Heeramandi has been a challenging yet rewarding project for her. She admits, “I am a director’s actor and I surrender to their vision. I love the challenge and the nurture – it’s my fuel. I love to feel like a fearless child on a set.”

Next up for Aditi? She’s set to dazzle us in Lioness, directed by Kajri Babbar. This project stars British-Punjabi actress Paige Sandhu and Aditi herself. It’s a tale of two women, living almost a century apart, whose lives intersect in ways that change history. Intrigued? You bet!

Nisha’s Nutshell:

In Bollywood, love is like a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film—grand, dramatic, and full of surprises. So, whether you’re on set or off, remember to savor the moments, laugh a lot, and never forget whose team you’re on. And hey, if you can announce your engagement on Instagram with a cliché caption, even better!

Until next time, stay fabulous, darlings! 💅✨
