Raha Turns 3: Ranbir Kapoor & Alia Bhatt Host Intimate Family Celebration in Mumbai

The Kapoor-Bhatt household marked a special milestone on Thursday as Raha Kapoor, daughter of Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, celebrated her third birthday with a warm, family-centered gathering in Mumbai. The intimate celebration brought together close relatives and friends, with loved ones sharing glimpses of the occasion on social media.

Raha, born in November 2022, has remained largely away from the public eye at the request of her parents, making the rare photos and stories from Thursday’s celebration particularly cherished by fans. Both sides of the family—Kapoor and Bhatt—joined in for the private event.

Raha’s grandmothers, Neetu Kapoor and Soni Razdan, shared pictures from the celebration on Instagram Stories. One widely circulated photo featured Neetu posing alongside Soni Razdan, Shaheen Bhatt, and Nitasha Nanda. Neetu captioned the moment with a short message: “Raha’s fam jam.”

Another highlight was the appearance of Rani Mukerji, who attended the gathering and was seen interacting warmly with members of the family. Known to share a long-standing bond with the Kapoor clan, Mukerji opted for a casual yet chic look, pairing a shirt and jacket with denim, while several family members chose festive, celebratory outfits.

Neetu Kapoor also posted a cheerful snap with her close-knit friend group, adding a playful GIF—another reminder of the loving, relaxed atmosphere of the celebration. Soni Razdan shared more photos featuring Reema Jain, Neetu Kapoor, and others, writing, “Happy Birthday, darling Raha,” on her Story.

Ranbir and Alia, who tied the knot in April 2022, welcomed Raha later that year and introduced her to the world only during Christmas 2023. Recently, Alia made headlines after removing all publicly shared photographs of her daughter, underscoring her commitment to maintaining Raha’s privacy despite high public interest.

In a recent conversation with Grazia, Alia reflected on how motherhood has shifted her creative compass. She shared that Raha now influences many of her artistic decisions, revealing that she hopes to work on a film her daughter can enjoy one day. The actor hinted at being drawn toward comedy, saying she has never explored the genre and feels inspired by the prospect of something new.

The celebration served as a gentle reminder of how closely knit the Kapoor and Bhatt families remain. With friends like Rani Mukerji present and heartfelt messages shared online, Raha’s third birthday was marked with affection, togetherness, and a sense of meaningful family bonds.
