Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor’s daughter, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, who is also Ranbir Kapoor’s sister, is all set to enter the film world. She will make her acting debut in the family comedy Daadi Ki Shaadi alongside her mother Neetu Kapoor and comedian-actor Kapil Sharma. The film has become the talk of the town, as it marks a surprising yet heartwarming step by Riddhima into Bollywood.
Although Riddhima is already a successful fashion designer at 44, she embraced this film opportunity with full excitement. She shared that her entire family, including her sister-in-law Alia Bhatt, played a huge role in motivating her to step into cinema. The decision to act came later in her life, but she appears fully committed and enthusiastic about the journey.
There have often been reports suggesting that the Kapoor family does not allow their daughters to become actresses, and that Rishi Kapoor had strict views about Riddhima working in films. Riddhima clarified that these are baseless rumours. She explained that she was focused on completing her studies and building a career in fashion, which is why she never entered the film industry earlier.
Doing Daadi Ki Shaadi felt right to her, especially since it is backed by her mother, Neetu Kapoor. Her husband and many of her fans were thrilled by the news and supported her in this new chapter. People praised her for following her heart and showing that age should never hold anyone back from chasing dreams.
