Ranbir Kapoor kept Raha close as they returned to Mumbai with Alia Bhatt. Watch the videos here.
Ranbir Kapoor’s daughter Raha showed her father some love when they touched down in Mumbai. On Sunday night, Raha and Ranbir were spotted getting out of the airport with Alia Bhatt by their side. Raha was in Ranbir’s arms as they headed for the car. While videos showed the happy family together, a new video revealed Raha kissed Ranbir on his cheek a couple of times. The adorable moment left Alia smiling.
As they stepped into the car, Ranbir continued to hold Raha close. The protective father then signalled the paparazzi to not take her pictures. When they refused to adhere to his requests, he began playing with Raha and got her to smile. Once the photos were taken, Alia turned Raha’s face away to safeguard her from the camera flashes and bright lights. Watch the videos below:
Ranbir and Alia welcomed Raha in November 2022. Alia shared a picture of Ranbir holding the little one in his arms on Instagram and wrote, “The name Raha (chosen by her wise and wonderful Dadi) has so many beautiful meanings… Raha, in its purest form means divine path. In Swahili she is Joy, In Sanskrit, Raha is a clan, In Bangla – rest, comfort, relief, in Arabic peace, it also means happiness, freedom & bliss. And true to her name, from the first moment we held her – we felt it ALL! ❤️ Thank you Raha, for bringing our family to life, it feels as though our lives have only just begun.”
Ranbir has often spoken fondly about his daughter. Neetu Kapoor also praised Ranbir and Raha’s bond. “His expressions are reserved for cinema. In real life, he doesn’t react that much to things. For the first time, when Raha enters, you should see his face. It’s full of expression. He gets very excited. He is the best father. Alia is a good mother. She is outstanding but he is a hands-on father. I have seen many fathers but I have seen none like him. He is the opposite of his father (Rishi Kapoor). My husband was never very good with children,” Neetu Kapoor said on The Great Indian Kapil Show earlier this year.
