PM Narendra Modi Meets Fauda Team in Israel, Lior Raz Calls It a ‘Huge Honour’


In a unique blend of diplomacy and pop culture, Narendra Modi met the team behind the globally acclaimed series Fauda during his recent visit to Israel, creating a memorable moment that resonated across both political and entertainment circles.

The Prime Minister, who returned to India after a historic two-day state visit, took to social media to share a cheerful selfie with the cast and creators of Fauda. Adding his trademark touch of humour, he wrote, “Thankfully, this interaction required only a selfie, no undercover work! #Fauda,” referencing the show’s intense espionage theme.

The highlight of the interaction was the response from Fauda’s co-creator and lead actor, Lior Raz, who described the meeting as a “huge honour.” Speaking in an interview, Raz praised the Prime Minister’s support for the arts, noting how significant it was for creators to receive recognition from a leader of such a large and influential country.

Raz also reflected on the show’s strong connection with India, recalling its Netflix premiere at the International Film Festival of India held in Goa. He expressed enthusiasm about future collaborations, stating that the team would love to return to India and engage more deeply with its creative industry.

Fauda, developed by Lior Raz and Avi Issacharoff, is widely regarded as one of the most gripping political thrillers in global television. The series draws inspiration from their experiences in the Israel Defense Forces and follows the story of Doron, an undercover commander in a special unit, navigating high-stakes missions and personal dilemmas.

Since its debut in 2015, the series has gained international acclaim and a dedicated fan base, including in India, where it streams on Netflix. With four successful seasons already released and a fifth season on the way, Fauda continues to expand its global reach.

Its popularity in India also led to an official adaptation titled Tanaav, which premiered in 2022 and explores similar themes within an Indian context.

The meeting between PM Modi and the Fauda team underscores the growing cultural exchange between India and Israel, where diplomacy extends beyond traditional boundaries into storytelling, cinema, and shared creative aspirations.

Written by Intern Rency Gomes || Team Allycaral 

Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have entered a new chapter in their relationship, getting married in an intimate ceremony at ITC Mementos, Udaipur, on February 26.


The couple, who first shared screen space in the Telugu films Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade, solemnised their union in the morning as per traditional Telugu rituals. A second ceremony was later held to honour Rashmika Mandanna’s Kodava heritage, making it a celebration of both families’ cultural roots.

Known for keeping their relationship largely private over the years, the actors opted for a strictly no-phone wedding, ensuring an unplugged and intimate atmosphere for close friends and family. Guests were required to deposit their phones at the entrance, reinforcing the couple’s desire for privacy.

For the Telugu ceremony, the bride and groom wore ensembles designed by Anamika Khanna. Official wedding photographs shared on social media quickly went viral, with fans and celebrities flooding the comments section with congratulatory messages.

Reports suggest that the wedding festivities included a haldi ceremony with a splash of colours, a lively sangeet night featuring dance performances, and carefully curated hospitality for guests — and even sweets sent out to paparazzi stationed outside the venue.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his congratulations to the couple, while several film industry colleagues including Samantha, Kriti Sanon and Sandeep Reddy Vanga shared their wishes.

From on-screen romance to a real-life partnership, Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s journey has captured public imagination for years. With their wedding now official, fans are celebrating what many have called one of the most anticipated celebrity unions in recent times.

Mira Kapoor’s Romantic Birthday Wish for Shahid Kapoor Wins Hearts


Love stories in Bollywood often play out on-screen, but sometimes, the most genuine moments unfold away from the camera. That’s exactly what fans witnessed when Mira Rajput Kapoor shared a heartfelt birthday tribute to her husband, Shahid Kapoor, on February 25.

Taking to social media, Mira posted a series of intimate and romantic pictures, accompanied by a simple yet deeply personal message: “Simply the best… Happy Birthday love of my life.” The post quickly resonated with fans, offering a glimpse into the couple’s bond that has remained strong over the years.

The images captured a serene beachside setting, where the couple appeared relaxed and completely at ease in each other’s company. In one frame, Shahid, dressed casually in a black T-shirt and sunglasses, wraps his arms around Mira as they gaze out at the sea, soaking in the calm of the moment. Another candid shot shows them laughing freely, with Mira leaning back into his embrace.

Perhaps the most touching image in the series is one where Mira plants a gentle kiss on Shahid’s forehead, while he smiles warmly at the camera. The final photograph adds a playful touch, with Shahid lifting Mira as she hugs him tightly—an effortless display of affection and comfort.

Their story dates back to July 7, 2015, when they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Delhi. Unlike many celebrity relationships, theirs was an arranged match, brought together through family connections and spiritual guidance. Over the years, their relationship has evolved into one of Bollywood’s most admired partnerships.

Today, more than a decade into their marriage, the couple are proud parents to two children—daughter Misha, born in 2016, and son Zain, born in 2018. While Shahid continues to shine in the film industry, Mira has carved her own identity as an entrepreneur, building a strong presence in the wellness and lifestyle space.

On the professional front, Shahid Kapoor remains as busy as ever. After his recent appearance in O Romeo, he has an exciting lineup ahead with Cocktail 2 and Farzi 2, keeping fans eagerly anticipating his next performances.

Born into a family deeply rooted in cinema, Shahid is the son of veteran actors Pankaj Kapur and Neelima Azeem, and shares a close bond with his half-brother, actor Ishaan Khatter.

Yet, beyond the film sets and public appearances, it is moments like these—quiet, affectionate, and deeply personal—that truly define his life. Mira’s birthday post serves as a reminder that even in the spotlight, love can remain simple, grounded, and beautifully real.
