Saba Ali Khan’s Birthday Wish For Kareena
Saba took to social media to share a heartfelt birthday note for Kareena Kapoor Khan, while also jumping on the popular 1980s nostalgia trend. Pointing out that Kareena was born in 1980, Saba wrote, “You were born in 1980 - a true blue '80s child so this seemed appropriate - happy happy birthday to my gorgeous, kind and loving sister-in-law.”
She went on to celebrate Kareena’s enduring fashion appeal, adding, “Here's to being a style icon through every decade gone and all to come!” Saba’s message was accompanied by heart emojis, making it an affectionate tribute to the actress and her place as one of Bollywood’s most recognisable style personalities.
Karisma Kapoor Shares Rare Childhood Picture
Meanwhile, Kareena’s elder sister Karisma Kapoor also made her birthday special with a throwback picture from their childhood. Taking to Instagram, Karisma shared a rare and unseen image featuring the sisters from their younger days.
In the photograph, Karisma can be seen smiling at the camera while wearing a striped top and jeans. Kareena, meanwhile, appears to be looking away from the lens, seemingly intrigued by something happening elsewhere. The candid picture offered fans a glimpse of the sisters’ bond long before they became two of Bollywood’s most familiar faces.
Karisma captioned the post, “Happy birthday to the best sister ever,” before adding, “Always side by side Always twinning and winning. Love you mostest.” She also used hashtags including SisterLove, HairstyleGoals and HappyBirthday.
