Move over real bros! This Rakhi (August 22nd, 2025!), we're crushing on these Bollywood brothers who totally deserve a thread of love.
Hey Rakhi planners!
With Rakshabandhan 2025 just around the corner (mark those calendars for August 22nd!), our minds are buzzing with rakhis, gifts, and that special sibling love. But let's be real, sometimes we see other brothers who make us go, "Aww, wish I could tie him a rakhi too!" Especially in Bollywood, where some brother acts are just too adorable to ignore.
So, grab your imaginary thread and mithai box! Here are 7 Bollywood brothers who totally steal our hearts and make us want to add them to our Rakhi list:
Shahid Kapoor: The Protective Pro

Okay, who hasn't swooned over Shahid? But beyond the killer dance moves and charm, it’s his bond with half-brother Ishaan Khatter that melts us. Remember how he championed Ishaan's debut? That proud-big-bro energy? Shahid radiates protective vibes and genuine affection. He’s the kind of brother who’d definitely show up, no questions asked. Total rakhi-worthy reliability!
AbRam Khan: The Dimpled Darling

Okay, he might be young (turning 12 this year!), but Shah Rukh Khan’s youngest son, AbRam, is already a charmer. Those twinkling eyes and shy smiles? Hello, cuteness overload! Seeing glimpses of his playful bond with big siblings Suhana and Aryan makes us go "aww". He’s the little brother everyone wants to spoil rotten with the fanciest rakhi and extra ladoos. Future heartthrob? Absolutely. Adorable little bro right now? 100%.
Tiger Shroff: The Energetic Sweetheart

Tiger might be all about gravity-defying stunts, but with sister Krishna? Pure softie mode. Their social media is full of playful teasing, supportive messages, and genuine warmth. Tiger’s known for his discipline and respect – qualities that scream "awesome brother". He’d probably do a backflip to get to you on Rakhi day! Serious sibling goals and definitely rakhi material.
Hrehaan & Hridhaan Roshan: The Heartthrobs in Waiting

Hrithik Roshan’s boys are growing up fast (teens now!) and staying mostly out of the spotlight. But the rare glimpses we get? They seem polite, grounded, and share a close bond with their dad and each other. Inheriting those legendary Roshan looks and (hopefully) their dad’s kindness? Yeah, they’re already on many wishlists as the charming, respectful brothers we’d love to celebrate.
Ahan Shetty: The New Kid with Heart

Suniel Shetty’s son, Ahan, burst onto the scene with Tadap. While his debut had mixed reviews, off-screen, his bond with superstar sister Athiya Shetty is super sweet. He openly adores her, and their support for each other feels genuine. That new-kid humility combined with clear love for his sis? It’s endearing! He seems like the brother who’d be genuinely touched by a rakhi.
Arhaan Khan: The Stylish Support

Salman Khan’s nephew (son of brother Arbaaz Khan) Arhaan keeps it low-key compared to some, but he’s often seen being the supportive brother to his cousins and standing by family. He’s got that cool, stylish vibe but seems down-to-earth in family settings. That combination of being both trendy and family-oriented? Definitely makes him a contender for a cool, stylish rakhi!
Nirvan and Yohan : The Cool & Caring Cuz

Sohail Khan’s son, Nirvan, might be young (early 20s), but he’s shown a really sweet side, especially with his brother, Yohan. He seems like a chilled-out, modern brother who’d be fun to hang with but also has your back. Cool and caring? Rakhi-worthy combo!
So, there you have it! Seven Bollywood brothers who, with their charm, affection, and family vibes, totally make us wish our rakhi threads could stretch a little further. Whether it's the protective aura, the adorable factor, or the cool support, they remind us of all the wonderful ways brothers show up.
This Rakshabandhan 2025, whether you're tying a rakhi to your real-life hero or just appreciating these reel-life gems, celebrate that unique bond! Who knows, maybe one of them will get a special rakhi from a fan this year!
