In a surprising turn of events, Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor has unfollowed her rumored boyfriend, writer Rahul Mody, on Instagram. The actress, who made her relationship with Rahul Insta-official just a month ago, has also taken the drastic step of unfollowing several other accounts closely linked to him, including those belonging to his sister, his production house, and even his dog. Despite her actions, Rahul continues to follow Shraddha on the social media platform, leaving fans in a frenzy of speculation regarding the status of their relationship.
Over the years, rumors about Shraddha and Rahul’s relationship have been swirling, but it wasn’t until June of this year that Shraddha confirmed their dating status on social media. She shared an endearing photo of the two on her Instagram Stories, with Shraddha beaming into the camera while Rahul pulled a funny face. Accompanying the image, Shraddha wrote, “Dil rakh le, neend to vaapis de de yaar,” followed by a series of emojis, including a laughing face and a heart, and tagged Rahul in the post.
The news of their relationship was met with widespread excitement and support from fans and the industry alike. Both Shraddha and Rahul have ardently maintained their privacy, choosing not to flaunt their relationship in public too often. They were, however, spotted together at the pre-wedding festivities of Anant and Radhika Ambani in Jamnagar earlier this year. Their public appearances and Instagram posts seemed to indicate a blooming romance.
Interestingly, and compounding the confusion surrounding this latest development, Shraddha is currently gearing up for the release of her much-awaited film “Stree 2,” which is set to hit theatres on August 15. This has led some fans to speculate whether her recent social media activity could be part of a promotional strategy for the movie rather than an indication of real trouble in paradise.
Indeed, the timing of these events has left many wondering if the couple’s apparent social media fallout is a cleverly orchestrated attempt to draw attention to the upcoming film. Others, however, believe that the move might signify genuine personal issues between the pair.
Adding another layer to the speculation, a source had earlier this year informed Hindustan Times about the couple’s plans to perhaps announce their relationship officially at some point.
. According to the source, “They are not afraid to be photographed with each other, but that doesn’t mean they will make their relationship official anytime soon. They are both private people and want to keep their relationship out of the limelight.”
Besides her relationship status, Shraddha’s professional life appears to be intersecting with Rahul’s work. Reports have emerged that she is interested in starring in a new drama backed by Rahul’s production house. Rahul co-wrote the recently successful film “Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar,” and if all goes well, Shraddha will not only lead the cast but also take on a producer role for the first time in her career. Specifics about the movie’s storyline remain under wraps, as discussions are still in the preliminary stages. However, a source familiar with the project reveals, “The talks are in the nascent stage, so it can’t be determined whether this will be her next project. But Shraddha has liked the central idea. She plans to co-produce it along with Rahul’s production house.”
Despite the mixed signals, Shraddha Kapoor’s fans remain hopeful for clarity soon. While some are eagerly awaiting an official statement from the actress or Rahul to address the swirling rumors, others continue to look forward to Shraddha’s professional ventures, especially her upcoming film “Stree 2” and the potential new drama project.
In these uncertain times of social media narratives and public personas, celebrities like Shraddha Kapoor carefully navigate the fine line between personal life and public image. Whether this latest Instagram activity is a sign of personal struggles or a strategic move remains to be seen. For now, fans can only speculate and watch closely for any updates from the stars themselves.
