Bollywood Siblings You Did Not Know Are Related
Some of the biggest Bollywood stars have siblings working quietly in the industry. Here are the surprising Bollywood siblings most fans miss.

Bollywood loves a famous family, but not every star sibling wants the spotlight. Some run production houses. Some direct films. Some quietly built a parallel career while their brother or sister took the front page. Here are the Bollywood siblings you probably did not know were related.
1. Alia Bhatt and Shaheen Bhatt
Everyone knows Alia. Fewer people know that her older sister Shaheen is a writer and mental health advocate whose book I've Never Been (Un)Happier quietly became a bestseller.
2. Ranveer Singh and Ritika Bhavnani
Ranveer's only sister Ritika is not an actor, but she is the reason Sonam Kapoor and Ranveer stayed close. She works in styling and business and has stayed carefully out of the tabloid pages.
3. Ranbir Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni
Riddhima is a jewellery designer based in Delhi and is one of the more grounded members of the Kapoor family. She surfaces mostly at family events, weddings, and the occasional Instagram post that goes viral for no reason.
4. Priyanka Chopra and Siddharth Chopra
Priyanka's younger brother Siddharth has tried the restaurant business and stays deliberately away from film sets. His engagement to actor Ishita Kumar in 2018 was called off, which is the one time he was in the news.
5. Kartik Aaryan and Kittu Tiwari
Kartik's younger sister is a medical professional based in Gwalior. He talks about her often in interviews as the reason he stays grounded. She is not on social media, which in 2026 is its own kind of rebellion.
6. Vicky Kaushal and Sunny Kaushal
This one is a bit better known, but worth including. Both brothers are actors, and their father Sham Kaushal is one of the most respected action directors in Hindi cinema. Sunny's work in The Forgotten Army and Shiddat has slowly built his own audience.
7. Deepika Padukone and Anisha Padukone
Anisha is a professional golfer, one of the top ranked in India. She has represented the country in international events and is arguably more decorated in her field than her superstar sister is currently in awards.
Why so many stay off the radar
Being related to a Bollywood A-lister is a strange kind of pressure. Publications like Pinkvilla and Filmfare track family events, but many siblings choose careers in law, medicine, design and business instead of chasing the same spotlight.
