We had a little heart scare after seeing Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor’s empty Instagram account. Yes, all of her gorgeous photos and videos are deleted by the 31-year-old. She also removed her display picture (DP). It definitely came as a rude shock to her 22.1million Insta followers. She went post a series of bizarre pics with a cryptic message "Mard Ko Dard Hoga." Quite unlike the cute and bubbly star. But it totally makes sense. Shraddha is promoting her upcoming film, and she opted to do it just like Hollywood actress Blake Lively did in the recent past! Yes, Shraddha Kapoor is blatantly copying Blake that it's not even funny! What’s hilarious though is her team’s execution after stealing an awesome idea. Blake Lively Deletes Every Single Instagram Photo and Post, Follows 28 Emily Nelsons after Unfollowing Ryan Reynolds! Sounds Crazy?

There’s no official about the reason (obviously), but Shraddha has wiped everything off her Instagram account to promote her forthcoming film, Stree, which is a horror-comedy. The three posts present on her Insta feed read the punchline of the movie, "Mard Ko Dard Hoga" (men will feel the pain). This stint is just along the lines of what Blake Lively pulled off earlier this year in May.

Shraddha Kapoor Instagram looks like this now!!

Top Hollywood actress-fashion icon had deleted all her posts, removed her DP, unfollowed everyone including her actor husband, Ryan Reynolds. Her bio read: "What happened to Emily?..." as she began following a handful of ladies bearing ‘Emily Nelson’! Yes, just randomly Emily Nelsons around the globe had gorgeous Blake Lively in their followers' list. The mystery was finally solved after one came to know that it was part of a promotional campaign for her movie, a mystery-thriller A Simple Favor, slated to release in September 2018.

Blake Lively Instagram got no posts!

This is not the first occasion when Shraddha’s Stree is being talked about for ‘lifting ideas’. Stree will see the actress work opposite talented actor Rajkummar Rao. A few days ago, Rao had shared an Insta story with four photos of a floating Shraddha Kapoor in a ghostly avatar. Rajkummar asked his followers, “Do you see someone?” The story received an overwhelming response, but because Shraddha’s avatar from Stree was eerily similar to the demonic nun from James Wan’s American supernatural-horror film The Conjuring 2! Stree’s team needs to think and implement fresh ideas than lift tried-and-tested formulas from the West.

Such a copy!!

Stree directed by Amar Kaushik is based on an Indian urban legend, Nale Ba during the 1990s in Karnataka. According to this myth, "a witch roams the streets in the night and knocks on the door. The witch apparently spoke in voices of your kin so you would be deceived to open the door. If you open it, then you will die." So the residents came up with a smart idea of writing ‘Nale Ba’ (means 'come tomorrow' in Kannada) outside the doors and the walls of their house. So when the ghost reads it and it goes back to come the next day, and the cycle repeats. Stree is scheduled for release on August 31, 2018.
