Shibani Dandekar left everybody in awe when she added added 'Akhtar' to her name on social media after her wedding to Farhan Akhtar. In addition to this, she also wrote "Mrs Akhtar" in her Instagram bio. However, just days after the wedding, the actress removed the last bit. Shibani had added "Mrs Akhtar" last week to the bio however if you check her account on the photo-sharing ap, it has gone missing.
Earlier, her bio read, "Producer, Presenter, Actress, Singer, and Mrs. Akhtar’. Now, the rest of the part is the same but "Mrs Akhtar" seems to have been removed. Take a look:
