Singer
Kanika Kapoor has once again grabbed attention, though this time it wasn’t her music that made headlines.
A recent paparazzi clip shared by the Bollywood Society
Instagram page featuring her unique handbag created a stir across social media platforms. The video shows her stepping out with a novelty accessory that resembles an actual paint tin and the internet reacted immediately.
The bag in question is Louis Vuitton’s whimsical Paint Can bag, which is a compact, cylindrical mini-handbag designed with the brand’s familiar monogram and a striking purple finish.

The statement handbag comes with a leather top handle, metallic hardware and a detachable strap, which lets it double as a crossbody accessory. Its playful design overshadowed its luxury branding in the eyes of many viewers. The clip was shared with the caption, "#kanikakapoor spotted in town One word for her."
As the clip circulated widely, users rushed to comment. One person wrote, "Oo I thought that's a paint tin." Another joked, "Louis Vitton paint dabbawalas." A third added, "Paint box hai." There also comments from fans who have indeed loved Kanika's unique choice of fashion.

December concert scare
In December last year, during Kanika's Saturday-night performance at the Me’gong Festival 2025 in Meghalaya, a fan breached security, ran onto the stage, and grabbed her legs. The sudden intrusion alarmed onlookers and renewed concerns about the safety of artists at large public events.
Despite the chaos, Kanika continued performing as security personnel pulled the man away.
