Neetu Kapoor has pulled out a gem from her family album to wish everyone on the occasion of Holi. She has shared a video of a Holi party. Well, it isn't a normal one. The clip talks about the Holi celebrations in Raj Kapoor's days. Thank you, Neetu Kapoor, for taking us on this nostalgic ride. The clip opens with a signature Holi moment - people are being tossed into a coloured-water pool. Moments later, we see a close-up shot of Raj Kapoor having a fun time with his friends and family. Raj Kapoor's wife Krishna Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor and wife Neila Devi are also seen in the frame. And, we can't take our eyes off little Ranbir Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahani. They look adorable. We also managed to catch a glimpse of Rishi Kapoor. A perfect fam-jam moment, to say the least.

The video gets an added charm all thanks to Raj Kapoor's voiceover. It beings like this. “White is my favourite colour. It is so deep-rooted in my mind and in my heart… In the layers of memory in the childhood that I can never forget.” 

He continued, “The beautiful young couple that once came to see my father…I was seven or eight. She was so beautiful in the white costume that I wanted to present her with white flowers. I ran across and picked up some white tuberoses. But could never build up so much courage within me to give it to her. And, by the time I came near her she had left. The only that remains in my mind is her white veil.”

For this priceless video, Neetu Kapoor wrote, “When we were complete when there was love warmth. Happy Holi”.  The post became an instant hit on the social media platform. Actor Sanjay Kapoor called it “beautiful memories”. Sharing a piece of information about the party, he added, “I was there too.” Designer Manish Malhotra replied with a bunch of red heart emojis. Saba Pataudi sent her warmest greeting on the occasion. “ Happy Holi. To you and your loved ones. Stay safe,” he wrote.

Karisma Kapoor has also shared a golden memory to mark the occasion of Holi. The frame is from her childhood days. It features Karisma and her parents - Randhir Kapoor and Babita Kapoor. It was clicked during one of the “RK Holi” parties. 

Meanwhile, Karisma Kapoor's sister, actress Kareena Kapoor Khan was busy building a sandcastle with her son Jeh on Holi. The Kapoor sisters are currently in the Maldives. 

We hope you had a wonderful Holi too.
