Kriti Sanon shares RARE photo with rumored beau Kabir Bahia while bidding farewell to 2025: ‘Manifesting a “Cocktail” of things for the year ahead’ | Hindi Movie News
Kriti Sanon closed out 2025 with a thoughtful Instagram post that felt like a quiet exhale. Not flashy. Not performative. Just honest. She shared a carousel that stitched together her year, and one frame instantly took over the conversation online: a rare “light and shadow” photo with her rumored partner, Kabir Bahia.
A year of quiet growth
The post leaned into what happens off-camera, when no one is watching, and you still have to show up for yourself. Kriti said it plainly: “And it’s a Goodbye 2025! This year taught me that growth isn’t loud it’s quiet, consistent, and deeply personal.”She also spoke about learning when to slow down. “I lived stories that challenged me, paused when I needed to breathe, and learned that rest is as important as resilience.” Then came the image everyone paused on. A black-and-white “light and shadow” photograph with Kabir Bahia, subtle and moody, the kind of frame that says more by saying less. Kriti wrote on it, “All the beauty of life is made up of light and shadow.” Naturally, speculation followed, while she kept things low-key.The carousel held quieter moments too. Time with her sister Nupur Sanon. Time with their dog. Small slices of life that felt grounding. She also hinted at a happy milestone ahead, sharing that in 2026, Nupur Sanon will marry musician Stebin Ben.
Looking ahead to 2026
Toward the end, Kriti zoomed out and reflected on the bigger picture. “This year reminded me that growth isn’t loud, it’s consistent. It’s showing up even when no one’s clapping, doing the work on the quiet days, trusting the process, and still choosing joy.” She also mentioned a project that stayed close to her, writing, “‘Tere Ishk Mein’ will stay with me for a long time.”Her reflections went beyond films. She shared that she has “Started my journey as UNFPA’s honorary ambassador for gender equality, which I’m really looking forward to!” She closed with a hopeful note for the year ahead, writing, “Manifesting a ‘Cocktail’ of things for the year ahead: clarity, courage, creativity, calm and a little magic.”On the work front, she is heading into 2026 with momentum. Kriti will next be seen in ‘Cocktail 2’ alongside Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna, setting the tone for a busy year ahead.
