When budding actor Isabelle Kaif recently unveiled the first look of her upcoming film, fans quickly found resemblance with her famous sister, Bollywood star Katrina Kaif. For years, Bollywood has seen siblings entertaining audiences with their acting skills, and the list only keeps growing.
There are many youngsters who are either ready to make their acting debut or have lately made a name for themselves, just like their illustrious siblings.
Isabelle and Katrina Kaif
Isabelle, who has been visible in the Bollywood circuit for a while now, will star in Suswagatam Khushaamadeed opposite Pulkit Samrat, as a girl who hails from Agra. Meanwhile, Katrina continues to be one of the most popular actors in Bollywood, nearly two decades after she made her debut in films, with the 2003 release, Boom. Katrina has also made her mark as one of the most popular dancers in Bollywood, with hits like Chikni Chameli (Agneepath), Sheila ki jawaani (Tees Maar Khan), and Kamli (Dhoom 3).
Ahan and Athiya Shetty
They are the children of action hero Suniel Shetty. Athiya made her acting debut in 2015 with Hero and was seen in Mubarakan and Motichoor Chaknachoor. While she is yet to make it big in Bollywood, her younger brother Ahan is all geared up to hit the big screen with Tadap, a remake of the 2018 Telugu romantic drama RX 100.
Nupur and Kriti Sanon
Kriti has stayed busy since her Hindi film debut in 2014 with Heropanti. Dilwale, Raabta, Bareilly Ki Barfi, Luka Chuppi and Housefull 4 are some of the films she was seen in. Meanwhile, Nupur is also going the Bollywood way. She starred alongside Bollywood star Akshay Kumar in the music video of the song Filhall. There have been reports about production houses showing interest in casting her.
Sunny and Vicky Kaushal
Vicky bagged his first lead role in the critically-acclaimed film Masaan (2015). Then his strong screen presence in Raazi and Sanju, despite limited footage, grabbed attention. In 2019, he played an Army officer in Uri: The Surgical Strike, that made him a heartthrob. Sunny made his debut in 2016 with Sunshine Music Tours And Travels, and then starred in Gold, with Akshay Kumar and Amit Sadh as co-actors.
Saqib Saleem and Huma Qureshi
Saqib made his acting debut in 2011 with Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge. The brother-sister duo worked as co-stars in the 2017 film Dobaara: See Your Evil. Meanwhile, Huma became popular with the 2012 film series, Gangs Of Wasseypur. She is now set to make her Hollywood debut with Zack Snyder’s Army Of The Dead. Back in 2017, she had also starred in British film Viceroy’s House.
Sonam and Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor
Anil Kapoor and brother Sanjay Kapoor have been a part of the industry for decades, and now it is Anil’s children — daughter Sonam and son Harsh Varrdhan. Sonam had a big launch with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya in 2007, but the film bombed. Younger brother Harsh Varrdhan is relatively new in the acting space. After his debut with the 2016 no-show Mirzya, he starred in Bhavesh Joshi Superhero, and had a cameo in the recent AK Vs AK.
