5 Best Brother and Sister Duo (Raksha Bandhan Special)

Arpita and Salman Khan

As many people know Arpita was not born in the Khan household but she holds a special place in their heart, mostly Salman’s. She is also quite popular amongst the Bollywood fans, despite not being in the industry. Arpita always says Salman is the ‘best brother’ anyone could ever have. He sure is because he fulfilled all her dreams and desires, including booking the Taj Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad for two days for her wedding back in 2014, as Arpita likes the royal look of the palace a lot. She didn't manage to tie rakhi to him this year as Salman was in Malta shooting for Bharat.


Anshula and Arjun Kapoor

Arjun Kapoor’s younger sister Anshula is not on the big screen but active on social media and goes to different functions hosted by stars of Bollywood.  Since their mother Mona Shourie Kapoor passed away Arjun always supported his sister on every step as you can tell from her posts on Instagram. Even though there’s eight years difference between them two but they still have their fun and laugh. This year they celebrated raksha bandhan at their Uncle Sanjay Kapoor’s house with their sisters Janhvi and Khushi as well as their cousins.

Huma Qureshi and Saqib Saleem

Huma and Saqid came from a non-filmy background and made their names in the Bollywood industry with their hard work. They live together in Mumbai and support each other professionally and personally as Huma said during an interview. These two celebrated raksha bandhan this year by putting rakhi on each other’s hands as they think a sister is also able to protect the brother, the same way a brother does.

Shweta Nanda and Abhishek Bachchan

Shweta and Abhishek always held a special bond as siblings, you can also tell by seeing Big B’s post on Instagram of them two. This year Abhishek went to Shweta’s house for rakhi before leaving for work.

Sara and Ibrahim Ali Khan

Even though Sara and Ibrahim were always on the media as the children of Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh but they still kept themselves away from the media. However, now they’re known more with their name especially Sara Ali Khan. Her and her brother bond seem to be strong and loving as she said “I hope you continue to boss me around and bully me till you get your way” on an Instagram post.

Yash says Ravana in Ramayana must connect with Western viewers as film eyes global audience

Highlights

  • Yash says he humanised Ravana to help global audiences relate to the character.
  • Asura designs in the first glimpse drew criticism for looking too Western-inspired.
  • Producer Namit Malhotra compares the film's tone to Lord of the Rings and Gladiator.
Yash, who plays the demon king Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, says his portrayal was shaped by one clear goal: making the character relatable beyond Indian audiences.
Speaking at CinemaCon in Las Vegas this week, where the film was presented alongside major Hollywood releases, the actor said he worked to strip away the purely mythological reading of the role.

"I have tried to internalise the whole essence of Ravana and tried to make him as human as possible at times," Yash told Reuters.

"It is important for people to relate to him, and since we have global ambitions, we need to make it familiar to a Western audience as well."
