This warm exchange between the two, captured in a viral video, is going viral on social media.
The event in Mumbai was nothing short of a spectacle, as it brought together a host of industry stalwarts and family members. The Kapoor family, ever so gracious, made a stunning entrance on the red carpet. From Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor to Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan, the star-studded gathering was a visual treat. Alongside them, the charming Karisma Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni added to the glamour of the evening.
The evening was further brightened by the presence of other prominent figures, including Kartik Aaryan, Rajkumar Hirani, Mahesh Bhatt, and many more.

Shweta and her children, Navya and Agastya, continues to share a close connection with the Kapoor family.
