    Shraddha Kapoor co-owned jewellery store in Surat targeted in brazen burglary

    Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor’s jewellery brand, Palmonas, faced a security breach on Tuesday morning after an unidentified man broke into its showroom in Surat. The incident took place in the city’s upscale Adajan area, where the perpetrator reportedly smashed the store’s shutter locks to gain entry. Once inside, the intruder managed to escape with several valuable items before fleeing the scene.

    Local authorities have jumped into action, with teams from the Adajan police station and the Crime Branch launching a full-scale investigation. Adajan Police Inspector N.A. Chavda confirmed that an audit is currently underway to determine the exact extent of the loss. Investigators are meticulously comparing the store’s physical stock against inventory records, utilizing unique QR codes and barcodes to pinpoint exactly which pieces were stolen during the heist.

    Police are currently relying on high-definition surveillance footage captured inside the showroom, which shows a single man committing the act. Investigators are now analyzing the clips to see if the suspect had any accomplices waiting nearby and are reviewing CCTV feeds from neighboring buildings to map out the thief’s escape route. Three dedicated police teams have been formed to track the perpetrator, with officials currently exploring the possibility that the break-in was a pre-planned job by someone familiar with the store’s security measures.

    Palmonas, which has gained popularity for its high-end urban jewellery collections, is co-owned by Shraddha Kapoor alongside founders Dr. Amol Patwari and Pallavi Mohadikar. As the investigation continues, authorities have stated that a comprehensive update regarding the total value of the stolen goods will be provided once the reconciliation process is finalized.

    Sunita Ahuja withdraws divorce petition filed against husband Govinda

    In a major development for one of Bollywood’s most enduring couples, Sunita Ahuja has officially withdrawn the divorce petition she previously filed against actor Govinda. The couple, who tied the knot in 1987, have been the subject of intense media scrutiny over the past two years. Confirming the news, Govinda’s manager, Shashi Sinha, stated that Sunita visited the Bandra Family Court on Wednesday specifically to retract the legal filing initiated back in December 2024.

    Sunita was accompanied to the court by their son, Yashvardhan Ahuja. The atmosphere outside the premises was tense as the duo faced a barrage of paparazzi. Yashvardhan appeared visibly frustrated, urging the photographers to give them space and stop harassing his mother. When pressed by the media about the proceedings inside, Yashvardhan curtly replied, “Nothing.” Sunita, opting for a cryptic response, sarcastically remarked that they were simply there to “celebrate a birthday.”

    The marital strain had become public knowledge following reports of the divorce petition, which allegedly cited grounds including cruelty and desertion. Speculation surrounding the couple intensified after Govinda was spotted at an airport with his ‘Rupa’ co-star, Komal Rani Swarnkar. Sunita had previously expressed strong displeasure regarding the association, even making headlines for labeling Govinda a ‘sugar daddy’ and criticizing the actress’s fashion choices. Despite the controversy, Govinda has consistently maintained that his relationship with his co-star is strictly professional, and no evidence of an affair has ever been substantiated.

    Govinda and Sunita share two children, daughter Tina Ahuja and son Yashvardhan. Tina, also known as Narmada, made her Bollywood debut in 2015 with ‘Second Hand Husband’, while Yashvardhan is currently preparing for his own foray into the film industry. As of now, the withdrawal of the petition marks a significant shift in the public narrative surrounding the couple’s long-standing marriage.
