Do you know who is cheeky, sassy and 'untamed'? - RHEA KAPOOR. Anil Kapoor's younger daughter Rhea, who is also a filmmaker and stylist, is way too sassy. Rhea instagrammed a picture which read: "Calling your parents by their first names because you're sassy and cannot be tamed." But the show-stealer is Rhea's caption (wait-for-it): "What up Sonu? @kapoor.sunita What up Ak? @anilskapoor #parenting." ROFL. Rhea's siblings (Sonam Kapoor and Harshvardhan) and parents have currently ignored her cheeky post but actor Varun Dhawan revealed something about the Kapoor family dynamics: "I love it when she shouts at you," to which Rhea replied: "It's intense."
Indeed.
Take a look at Rhea Kapoor's morning amusement:
Rhea has incorporated the above 'sass' in Sonam Kapoor's character Milli from
Khoobsurat. Milli addresses her mother by her first name which also takes Rani Nirmala Devi (played by Ratna Pathak Shah) by surprise.
We'd like to add here that the unusual (for some) way to address family members is something Rhea may have inherited from her father. For instance, Anil Kapoor addresses his nephew as 'chachu.' Anil Kapoor also told news agency PTI during
Mubarakan promotions: "He's my brother's son. In fact, he's like my own son. But I never call him Arjun,
I call him Arjun chachu." Arjun is the son of filmmaker Boney Kapoor, who is Anil Kapoor's elder brother.
Rhea Kapoor is currently making
Veerey Di Wedding, starring Sonam Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania. Anil Kapoor is shooting for Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's
Fanney Khan with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
