On a day when most celebrate with cake and wishes, TV actress Ridhima Pandit chose to give someone the gift of vision. Turning 35 on June 25, the actress—famous for her role as the endearing robot bahu in Bahu Hamari Rajni Kant—announced on Instagram that she has pledged to donate her eyes, winning hearts across the internet.
In an emotional post, Ridhima wrote:
"Of all the signatures I've ever done, I am most proud of my donor card. Today, as I step into another year of life, I take a small step that may one day light up someone else's world."
Known for her expressive eyes and graceful presence on screen, Ridhima’s pledge moved many.
"Organ donation is not just a personal choice—it’s a responsibility we all share," she added. Social media was flooded with admiration, with users calling her act “rare,” “bold,” and “deeply human.”
With 2.3 million followers on Instagram, Ridhima often posts about fashion and fitness. But this time, her post wasn’t about glamour—it was about giving back. Her gesture is already sparking conversations about the importance of organ donation in India.
The Shubman Gill ConnectionRidhima Pandit’s name has also previously been linked with Indian cricketer Shubman Gill. Rumors had even hinted at a possible wedding in December 2024. However, Ridhima put all speculation to rest, calling the reports “completely baseless.” She clarified she shares no personal relationship with the star cricketer.
A New Chapter Begins, One With PurposeWhile Bollywood legends like Amitabh Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, and Aishwarya Rai have supported organ donation in the past, Ridhima’s step places her among a rare few who’ve actually pledged and signed up officially.
On her birthday, instead of receiving, she chose to give—a gift that might one day restore someone’s vision.
