All about the Bollywood bride Rhea Kapoor and groom Karan Boolani

Bollywood weddings are notorious for being star-studded and decadent, but producer and stylist Rhea Kapoor is not sticking to conventions when it comes to her own life. As reports emerge that Kapoor will wed her long-time boyfriend Karan Boolani in Mumbai at her actor-father Anil Kapoor's residence in Mumbai's posh Juhu on August 14, Gulf News looks back at this loved-up couple who has always maintained a low profile throughout their courtship.

While Rhea Kapoor, who has produced films such as 'Veere Di Wedding' and 'Aisha' starring her celebrity sister Sonam Kapoor, has always kept a lid on her personal life, it was during her sister Sonam's wedding that we truly noticed Karan Boolani in their family portrait. While the two have been dating for over 13 years, it was during Sonam's wedding that we realised that Rhea and Karan shared a significant bond. Karan, who has shot over 300 commercials and backed projects such as 'Selection Day', has always been spotted at their family get-togethers. Producer director Boolani has directed episodes of his future father-in-law Anil Kapoor's hit seris '24 and his home production 'Aisha'.

Rhea Kapoor and Karan Boolani have always been a portrait of a modern-day couple in a loving relationship. Their social media posts wishing each on their birthdays are always personal and intimate. Both have never shied away from talking each other up and their love for each other on their social media accounts.

Rhea Kapoor's father Anil Kapoor seems to be a strong cheerleader for their union. In several interviews, Kapoor has come across as a doting father who's incredibly proud of raising two assured and confident daughters. Just like her sister Sonam Kapoor who chose London-based businessman Anand Ahuja, Rhea has also chosen her own life partner.

This Kapoor clan seems like close-knit family. Rhea has not just backed Sonam Kapoor's films such as 'Aisha' and 'Veere Di Wedding', the siblings also share a great camaraderie. While the preparations of Rhea's wedding is being kept under wraps and is likely to be attended by just her close family and friends, there's no denying that Sonam must be fully involved in her sister's wedding preparations. Recently, both Sonam and her husband had flown down from London to Mumbai. Their timing of their visit now makes a lot more sense.

Both sisters -- Rhea and Sonam -- are known to have a keen sense of fashion and clothes. In several interviews, Sonam has always credited her sister Rhea for upping her fashion game. Apart from production, Rhea has also been making strides in the sartorial front. Recently she collaborated with designer Masaba Gupta for a capsule collection.

While Rhea is on a strong footing in Bollywood and is known to back female-fronted films such as 'Aisha' and 'Veere Di Wedding', director and producer Karan Boolani is also doing well in his career. He has shot over 300 commercials. He has also directed episodes of '24 and assisted in Rhea's production 'Aisha'. While pictures of their pre-wedding ceremony is yet to be released, here's wishing the couple a great life ahead.
