Samara Sahni, the beloved niece of Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor, captured hearts with a charming throwback video during her recent birthday celebration. On Sunday, Neetu Kapoor, Samara’s grandmother, shared a nostalgic video on social media, featuring young Samara singing “Balam Pichkari,” a hit song from the movie “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani,” which originally starred Ranbir Kapoor.
In the endearing clip, Samara sits comfortably at a table, possibly under her nanny’s watchful eye, as Neetu Kapoor records this memorable moment. The young girl joyfully sings along to the upbeat tune, even attempting the catchy dance step, reminiscent of her uncle’s performance in the film alongside Deepika Padukone. Her innocence and enthusiasm added an extra layer of charm to the video.
As Samara momentarily pauses in the song, voices in the background encourage her to continue. The family further enjoys the celebration with Neetu and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Samara’s mother, suggesting another popular song, “Dilliwaali Girlfriend.” It is worth noting that Samara was merely two years old when “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani” premiered in 2013.
The celebration continued on social media, with Riddhima Kapoor Sahni sharing birthday wishes for Samara through a photo montage and images of the birthday cake. Notably, Riddhima reflects on Samara’s growing awareness of public perception, mentioning the challenges of dealing with online trolls.
Samara, inspired by her maternal family’s film legacy, reportedly aspires to follow in their footsteps, pursuing a career in films upon completing her education. Riddhima and Bharat Sahni, Samara’s parents, have been supportive of her ambitions, maintaining open dialogues about life’s nuances, both online and offline.
The delightful video of Samara, infused with warmth and joy, not only celebrates her birthday but also cements her connection with her famous uncle, Ranbir Kapoor, shining a light on the heartwarming bond shared within this illustrious family.
