Boney Kapoor’s Witty One-Liners Grab the Limelight
During a photo opportunity with them together, Boney Kapoor cracked a one-liner that left everyone in splits. In a joking vein, he said, “Inki shadow mein main bhi theek dikh raha hoon na? Inka glamour mujhpe chhalak raha hai ki nahi? ” (Am I looking good in their shadow? Is her glamour reflecting on me or not?). His lighthearted remark brought Karishma Tanna to a wide smile, giving the moment an affectionate sheen. The couple even clasped hands briefly as they posed, adding more to the warmth and bonhomie between them.

Amidst the glitz and glamour of the IIFA red carpet, Boney Kapoor also made headlines with an exciting announcement. The producer revealed plans for a sequel to his late wife Sridevi’s 2017 hit film Mom, with his daughter Khushi Kapoor set to star in the sequel. Speaking to the media, Boney shared his pride for his daughters, Khushi and Janhvi Kapoor, as they strive to follow in Sridevi’s legendary footsteps.
Boney mentioned that he had seen all of Khushi’s films, including Archies, Loveyappa, and Nadaaniyaan, and hinted at a potential project with her post-No Entry. He expressed hope that both Khushi and Janhvi would achieve the same level of excellence as their mother, who was revered as a top star in multiple film industries.
The original Mom, where Sridevi played a strong role as a mother who wants justice done to her daughter, made an everlasting impression on the audience and was one of her best performances.
