From Kareena Kapoor to Alia Bhatt, how Bollywood is celebrating the New Year

From parties dotted with stars to putting that diet on the side for a while, Bollywood stars are enjoying their New Year’s break. Here’s what’s putting them in a celebratory mood.

It couple of the moment Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are on holiday in Ranthambore with their families. On December 31, the ‘Gully Boy’ actress posted a photo of herself next to a bonfire – and you can just about make out that Kapoor is sitting nearby. The caption of the picture sparked inquiry, with some wondering if the caption plus the family trip meant an engagement was in the offing. She captioned her picture: “& to whatever lies ahead of us… cheers”.

Bhatt, who is a Potterhead, also posted photos from her breakfast table – she was relishing her aloo parathas (potato-stuffed flatbread) –while reading ‘Harry Potter’.

Meanwhile, designer Manish Malhotra roped in a number of Bollywood friends for his party ahead of New Year. Those in attendance included Kriti Sanon, Jacqueline Fernandez, Kartik Aaryan, and Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor.

Mum-to-be Kareena Kapoor Khan has the perfect way to say goodbye to the year that was and usher in the year that will be – with family. She posted a picture of herself alongside her husband, Saif Ali Khan, and son, Taimur, captioning it, “Ending the year snuggling and cuddling trying to force the boys into a perfect picture...❤️❤️❤️”

It’s another Maldives vacation shot! Actors Ananya Panday and Ishaan Khatter, who are rumoured to be dating, have been posting photos from their holiday. And while neither appear in the other’s Insta-stream, they are putting up pictures from the same hot spots and tagging the same resort.

Khatter and Panday, who worked in the movie ‘Khaali Peeli’ recently also posted photos of their breakfasts – separately of course.

There’s a lot of advertising going around – if Kareena Kapoor Khan or Akshay Kumar’s schedules are anything to go by. They topped the TAM adex- TV Year Rounder Report 2020 for featuring in the most ads.

According to a pitchonnet.com report, Kumar is followed by Amitabh Bachchan, Ranveer Singh, Shah Rukh Khan, and Varun Dhawan in the male list while Khan is followed by Kiara Advani, Alia Bhatt, Anushka Sharma and Shraddha Kapoor.

Kajal Aggarwal and husband Gautam Kitchlu are off to Shimla for New Year’s. Stunning vistas and a backdrop of mountains promise a romantic start to 2021.

Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi cannot wait for tomorrow. He wrote a post about his impatience on social media. "Ab jaldi ane ka kya fees lega?! Salaam, Dua aur Do hazaar ek-kiss lega (How much fees will you take for coming early?! Salaam, Dua aur Do hazaar #2021 @karankrkapoor @worshipthepanda #GoodThings #ComingUp," he wrote.

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his interior designer wife are saying goodbye to the year in style. Gauri posted a throwback photo, writing: “FINALLY...2021 💝 . Happy new year.”
