The Kapoor family recently celebrated a heartwarming occasion as Anshula Kapoor, daughter of Boney Kapoor and sister of Arjun Kapoor, got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Rohan Thakkar. The engagement ceremony, a traditional Gujarati pre-wedding ritual known as Gor Dhana, took place on October 2, 2025, at Boney Kapoor's Mumbai residence in an intimate gathering filled with close family members and friends.
Pictures and videos from the event have been circulating on social media, capturing precious moments of the family celebrating Anshula and Rohan's union. One image that caught the attention of many was Anshula honoring her late mother, Mona Shourie Kapoor, who passed away in 2012. She had a chair dedicated to her memory, symbolizing her presence at the joyous occasion.
Arjun Kapoor, Anshula's brother, shared an emotional note on social media, expressing his feelings about his sister's engagement. He acknowledged that it was time for him to accept that she would soon be embarking on her own journey. He also poignantly mentioned how much he missed his mother during this significant milestone in Anshula's life.
Boney Kapoor, the father of the bride-to-be, was also seen in a video embracing Anshula, overcome with emotion. His heartfelt hug clearly conveyed his love and happiness for his daughter as she begins this new chapter in her life. While Boney Kapoor has not made an official statement, the images circulating online speak volumes about the emotions he experienced during the ceremony.
Anshula shared a carousel of images on her Instagram, featuring family members like Janhvi Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, and Rhea Kapoor. Maheep Kapoor, wife of Sanjay Kapoor, Boney's younger brother, played a significant role in the ceremony, stepping in to perform the 'tel madha' ritual, which is traditionally carried out by senior women from the bride and groom's families. Fans appreciated Maheep for taking on these motherly duties in the absence of Mona Shourie Kapoor.
Anshula met Rohan through a dating app. Rohan proposed to her in New York's Central Park in July. Anshula shared that Rohan's proposal occurred at "exactly 1:15 am India time". She described the moment as magical and peaceful and referred to Rohan as her "best friend" and "safe place".
Anshula also honored her mother's memory through her engagement outfit. Designed by Arpita Mehta, the outfit had the words 'Rab Rakha' stitched on the back, a phrase her mother often used and believed in. The Gor Dhana ceremony was attended by other members of the Kapoor clan, including Sonam Kapoor, Harshvarrdhan Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor, and Shanaya Kapoor.
