Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh has never been one to follow conventional fashion rules, and his latest appearance is another reminder of his flair for making a statement. Stepping out in an eye-catching pink ethnic ensemble, the actor brought together traditional elegance, contemporary styling and his unmistakable personality.

Ranveer's outfit featured a floral-embroidered pink jacket layered over a matching kurta, complemented by contrasting white bottoms. Tinted sunglasses added a contemporary edge to the traditional silhouette, creating a look that was both festive and distinctly Ranveer.

Ranveer Singh's Pink Look Meets His ‘Girl Dad’ Era

Beyond the fashion statement, the appearance also offers a playful connection to Ranveer's life as a father. The actor and his wife, Deepika Padukone, welcomed their daughter Dua in September 2024, marking a new chapter in their lives. Although pink has long been associated with femininity, Ranveer's wardrobe has consistently challenged conventional ideas about men's fashion. His willingness to experiment with colours, textures and silhouettes has made him one of Hindi cinema's most recognisable celebrity dressers. The latest ensemble fits naturally into that fashion identity, while the affectionate ‘girl dad’ description adds a personal dimension to his public image.

From Dhurandhar's Intensity to Off-Screen Style

On screen, Ranveer has explored a wide range of characters, including his action-driven portrayal in Dhurandhar. Away from the camera, however, his public appearances reveal a different side of the actor expressive, playful and comfortable with bold fashion choices. The contrast between his intense cinematic roles and colourful personal style has become an interesting part of his celebrity identity. Whether it is a dramatic red-carpet outfit or a carefully styled traditional ensemble, Ranveer continues to approach fashion as a form of self-expression. His latest pink appearance is another example of how the actor blends individuality with an evolving personal narrative that now includes fatherhood.









The youth-led programme takes Mahatma Gandhi’s message of peace and non-violence to Brazil, South Korea, South Africa, Belgium and Mali through dialogues with young people.

Aamber Fatima leads I.I.M.U.N. Gandhi Jayanti Youth Dialogue on Peace and Non-Violence across five countries

Mumbai, October 2, 2026: Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence is travelling beyond India this Gandhi Jayanti through a distinctly young voice. India’s International Movement to Unite Nations (I.I.M.U.N.) is taking its Gandhi Jayanti Youth Dialogue on Peace and Non-Violence to five countries, with the international initiative conceptualised and spearheaded by Aamber Fatima, a 20-year-old from Kashmir.

The programme is being conducted across Brazil, South Korea, South Africa, Belgium and Mali, in collaboration with Indian Embassies and Consulates, bringing young people together for conversations around peace, tolerance, coexistence and mutual understanding.

What gives the initiative particular resonance is the journey of the young woman leading it. Born and raised in Srinagar, Fatima joined I.I.M.U.N. at the age of 14 before moving to Mumbai, where she is currently pursuing law. At 20, she is now leading a team of young people aged between 15 and 24 to take Gandhi’s ideas to an international audience.

From Srinagar to a Global Youth Dialogue

Speaking about the initiative, I.I.M.U.N. founder Rishabh Shah said Fatima had conceptualised and spearheaded the programme. “What warms my heart most is that this entire initiative was conceptualised and spearheaded by Aamber Fatima, a 20-year-old young woman from Kashmir who joined I.I.M.U.N. when she was just 14,” Rishabh Shah said. Highlighting the significance of her journey from Srinagar to leading an international peace initiative, he added: “There is something incredibly powerful about a young Kashmiri carrying a message of peace from India to the world. I suspect Gandhi Ji would be smiling at that.” The initiative is designed to be more than a commemorative programme. Young I.I.M.U.N. leaders are expected to travel to the participating countries and engage directly with local students, placing young people at the centre of both the organisation and execution of the dialogues.

Each session is expected to involve approximately 50 to 100 students, depending on the capacity of the respective Indian Embassy or Consulate.

Taking Gandhi’s Ideas Beyond the History Books

The discussions will centre on four interconnected themes: peace and non-violence, dialogue and mutual understanding, tolerance and coexistence, and the role of young people in peacebuilding. The larger objective is to encourage participants to examine Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy not merely as part of India’s historical legacy, but as a framework through which contemporary disagreements and divisions can be approached. That gives the Gandhi Jayanti initiative relevance beyond ceremonial remembrance. At a time when societies across the world are confronting conflict and polarisation, the programme seeks to place dialogue and non-violent engagement before a generation that will increasingly shape public institutions, communities and international conversations. The fact that the initiative itself is being driven by young people also reinforces its central message: Gandhi’s ideas remain meaningful only when succeeding generations find ways to interpret and practise them within their own circumstances.

I.I.M.U.N.’s Growing Youth Network

Founded by Rishabh Shah in 2011, India’s International Movement to Unite Nations (I.I.M.U.N.) describes itself as a youth-run non-profit focused on developing conscientious leaders through programmes spanning leadership, public affairs, literature and social impact. Over 15 years, the organisation has expanded its presence to 275 cities and 40 countries and says it has reached more than 75 million people. More than 30,000 young people have worked with the organisation since its inception.

Through conferences, leadership programmes, literature initiatives and social-impact projects, I.I.M.U.N. has sought to create spaces where students can engage with issues extending from their communities to international affairs.

This Gandhi Jayanti, that youth-led model is being taken into a particularly symbolic space: a 20-year-old from Srinagar leading young Indians in carrying a message associated globally with India; peace through dialogue and non-violence across national borders.

What’s next for Vijay Deverakonda’s UNHYPE?

Following the sell-out of the limited VD Signature editions, UNHYPE is preparing to introduce its regular Acne Safe and Brightening Routines from October 3.

The three-step skincare routines will be sold through the brand’s website, expanding availability beyond the initial limited-edition launch.

For a newly launched celebrity-backed skincare label, the reported ₹1.3 crore revenue from 10,000 routines in its first two weeks gives UNHYPE an early commercial milestone as it moves from its launch phase towards wider sales.
