Shweta Bachchan and her son, Agastya Nanda, were among the notable attendees at the RK Film Festival held on December 13 in Mumbai. Organized by PVR INOX Limited in association with Film Heritage Foundation, the festival is a grand celebration of Raj Kapoor’s 100th birthday. The event aims to honor the cinematic genius of the legendary actor-filmmaker by showcasing his timeless classics including Awaara, Shree 420 and Mera Naam Joker. Screening in 40 cities over three days, these films attract cinephiles and Bollywood enthusiasts alike.

Shweta turned heads at the event in an elegant black ensemble with vibrant embroidery and a striking magenta dupatta. She was joined by her son, Agastya Nanda, who opted for a stark black bandhgala that exuded understated sophistication. Agastya, who made his acting debut with The Archies, posed with his mother for the cameras, making for a picture-perfect moment.

Interestingly, Shweta’s husband Nikhil Nanda was notably absent from the pictures and videos circulating on social media. A prominent industrialist, Nikhil is also a member of the Kapoor family, being the son of Ritu Nanda – Raj Kapoor’s eldest daughter. His absence from the event raised curiosity, especially since it was a celebration of his maternal grandfather’s illustrious legacy.

Apart from the family affair, Shweta’s daughter Navya Naveli Nanda was also spotted at the festival. Navya posed with members of the Kapoor clan, including Ranbir Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, in a heartwarming family portrait.

RK Film Festival’s grand opening was punctuated by heartfelt tributes and nostalgic anecdotes celebrating Raj Kapoor’s enduring impact on Indian cinema. Fans of the Kapoor family were delighted to see multiple generations coming together for this special occasion.
