Sonam Kapoor drops family montage for Rhea Kapoor’s birthday, mentions son Vayu’s special bond with her

Actor Sonam Kapoor used Instagram on March 5 to share a birthday message for her sister Rhea Kapoor, whom she fondly calls “Rheebeee”. The post came at a time when Sonam is preparing to welcome her second child with husband Anand Ahuja. In recent weeks, the actor has been seen at several public events in Mumbai and has often credited Rhea for shaping many of her fashion choices.

Along with the message, Sonam posted a montage video featuring moments of Rhea with members of the Kapoor family. A few clips also showed little Vayu spending time with his aunt. The post offered a glimpse into their personal bond and the central role Rhea holds within the family’s everyday life.

In the caption, Sonam wrote a detailed note recalling their shared history.
Happy birthday to my sister, my built-in best friend, and the person who has been rolling her eyes at me since 1987. Rhe, you’ve always been the one with the taste, the instinct and the quiet confidence to do things your own way. While the rest of us were figuring things out loudly, you were just there… observing, editing, refining and somehow always getting it right. What people see is the style, the films, the brands, the aesthetic. What they don’t see is how fiercely loyal you are, how protective you are of the people you love, and how much heart goes into everything you do. You make things look effortless, but I know how much thought, stubbornness and passion sits behind it all.

She further wrote, continuing the message about their dynamic within the family.
You’ve built your own lane and done it on your own terms, which is something I’ve always admired about you. You’re funny without trying to be, brutally honest when I need it, and somehow still the person I want to call about absolutely everything. Vayu is absolutely obsessed with you and our family would genuinely not function the same without you at the centre of it all. I’m so proud of you, always. Happy birthday Rheebeee Sisters before misters, forever Love you.

Rhea later replied in comments writing love you, while Sunita Kapoor posted heart emojis.
