One of the highlights of the day was Neetu Kapoor’s Mehendi. Ranbir Kapoor’s mom and Alia Bhatt’s mother-in-law, Neetu, made sure that her late husband Rishi Kapoor's presence is felt in every function.

What’s a Mehendi ceremony without some dance, masti and music? Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s Mehendi had all the fun elements right in place. Dance performances were given by the family members including Nettu Kapoor, Karishma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Reema Jain, Anisha Jain and Nitasha Nanda.
The dance performances were done on some of Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor’s songs including Dholida and Cutie Pie. The other songs on which they performed included Tainu Leke Mai jawanaga and Karishma Kapoor’s superhit wedding song from Zubaida, Mehendi hai rachne wali. Ranbir’s sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and niece Samara Sahni were also a part of the performances.
Choreographer Rajendra Singh, who has been a part of the Kapoor clan’s weddings for decades, had prepared the performances. He set up the choreography and also took the rehearsals. Also popularly known as ‘Masterji’, the choreographer shared some throwback pictures from the rehearsals with the Kapoor ladies on his Instagram handle.
Meanwhile, Neetu Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni were in awe of Alia Bhatt when they were asked about their new ‘Bahu’ by the paps after Wednesday’s function. While Neetu called her “the best”, Riddhima finds her “cute” and just like a “doll”.
The function was attended by the Kapoor khandaan and Bhatt family as well as Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's close friends including Brahmastra director Ayan Mukerji and filmmaker Karan Johar.
