The latest season of Netflix’s popular reality series, previously known as Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, has returned with a twist under its new title, Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives. The season is drawing significant attention, especially because of a new face, Shalini Passi, who seems to be stealing the spotlight. Passi has quickly become a fan favorite for her sharp wit and confident demeanor, capturing the interest of viewers and sparking online conversations.
The increased attention towards Passi has raised questions about how the original cast members feel about sharing the limelight. In a recent Instagram video, producer Karan Johar playfully addressed this topic. He engaged in a candid conversation with Maheep Kapoor, one of the show’s long-standing stars. The video started with Johar attempting to tease Kapoor about her designer handbag, only to discover that it was actually a gift from him.
Switching gears, Johar then asked Kapoor how she felt about Passi’s rising popularity, asking if it made her feel “threatened.” Kapoor, however, chose to deflect the question, remarking that his line of inquiry was giving her a headache. Johar, not missing a beat, responded with another question: “Is the headache because of her popularity?” Kapoor’s reaction to this cheeky remark left fans amused.

Special guest appearances include Bollywood celebrities such as Gauri Khan, Ananya Panday, and Chunky Pandey. The show continues to stream on Netflix, promising more drama and behind-the-scenes glimpses into the lives of Bollywood’s social circles.
