The Kapoor family has always been known for their close-knit bond, whether it’s meeting the Prime Minister, celebrating birthdays, or going on vacations together. Now, they are coming together to celebrate the wedding festivities of Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani.

Karan Kapoor and Kunal Kapoor, the sons of the legendary actor Shashi Kapoor, made a rare joint public appearance at Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani's Mehndi ceremony in Mumbai.

The brothers, who are seldom seen together at public events, were photographed at the NSCI Club in Worli, accompanied by Kunal's son, Zahan Kapoor, who also joined them for the celebration.

Karan looked stylish in a sleek all-black outfit, while Kunal opted for a beige kurta set paired with a brown shawl. Zahan, who is making his debut in Bollywood, added elegance to the gathering in a white kurta with a grey shawl. Their presence at the family celebration delighted fans, as such public appearances by the Kapoor brothers are few and far between.

This rare sighting followed just a few days after Karan and Kunal reunited at Randhir Kapoor’s 78th birthday celebration on February 15.

Fans were thrilled to see the brothers posing alongside Neetu Kapoor, rekindling memories of the iconic Kapoor family legacy.

For those unfamiliar, Karan and Kunal Kapoor are the sons of Shashi Kapoor and Jennifer Kapoor.

Kunal, an actor who has appeared in numerous Bollywood films, continues to be active in the industry. Karan, on the other hand, moved to the UK in 1988 and reinvented himself as a successful photographer, running his own photography business in London.

Karan made his Bollywood debut in 1978 with the film Junoon, directed by Shyam Benegal, alongside his father Shashi Kapoor, Shabana Azmi, and Naseeruddin Shah. He later featured in films like Sultanat (1986), Loha, and Afsar. However, he eventually shifted to modeling, becoming a popular face through the Bombay Dyeing campaign before finding his true calling in photography.

In a 2016 interview with Rediff, when asked about a potential return to Bollywood, Karan shared, "I would love to. But I don’t know if anyone wants to see me!" Despite this, his fans continue to cherish his era in the industry.
