Kriti Sanon sends warm birthday wishes as Priyanka Chopra and Bhumi Pednekar celebrate together

Priyanka Chopra celebrated her birthday with a beachside vacation surrounded by close family. Joining the list of many well-wishers was actress Kriti Sanon, who took to social media to express admiration for the global star.

On her Instagram stories, Kriti posted a picture with Priyanka and wrote, “Happiest birthday @priyankachopra!! You inspire me every single day!! Keep being the amazing YOU and keep making us proud!!” The post was a subtle nod to Priyanka’s long-standing global presence and her ability to juggle family, work, and philanthropy.

Priyanka, who is currently on a tropical break with husband Nick Jonas, daughter Malti Marie, and the Jonas family, had earlier given fans a glimpse of her celebration. A clip posted on Instagram showed her hugging Nick aboard a cruise. Dressed in a yellow bikini with a white shrug, Priyanka sported black sunglasses and slick hair, fitting perfectly into the relaxed mood of the vacation. She also wished fellow actress Bhumi Pednekar on her birthday, writing, “Happpyyy Birthday Bhums! ?? Have the besttt year ahead filled with love, laughter and sunshine ??😘”.

Meanwhile, Kriti Sanon has been making headlines for landing the lead role in Don 3, directed by Farhan Akhtar. After months of speculation, Excel Entertainment recently confirmed that Kriti will star alongside Ranveer Singh in the next instalment of the action franchise. She replaces Kiara Advani, who welcomed her first child recently.

A release from Excel Entertainment also mentioned Farhan’s upcoming war film 120 Bahadur, but confirmed that Don 3 is next on his directorial slate. Filming is expected to begin in January 2026. Casting for the film is still ongoing, with reports suggesting talks are underway with a well-known male actor for the antagonist’s role.

Notably, Kriti had been seen several times at the Excel office in recent months. Her birthday post for Ranveer Singh had also caught attention, especially the line, “P.S. Looking forward to working with you soon!”—which many now see as a hint toward Don 3.
