Netflix has dropped the highly anticipated trailer for Dining with the Kapoors. In it, viewers get a warm and close look at Bollywood’s first family, the Kapoors. The trailer opens with Ranbir Kapoor introducing himself to the camera, followed by Kareena Kapoor Khan alighting from her car and greeting the viewer with a cheerful wave that invites the audience into the world of this most iconic family. Soon enough, Ranbir is joined by his sister Riddhima Sahni Kapoor, while Kareena’s voiceover sets the tone-celebrating a family bound together by affection, humour, and good food.
The trailer is full of candid and adorable moments that make the Kapoors both legendary and relatable at once. Neetu Kapoor is seen teasing Kareena, “You are the one who is dramatic,” while Karisma Kapoor breaks the fourth wall with her sweet, spontaneous comment, “Are you recording this? Sorry, cut.” Filmed during the grand celebration of Raj Kapoor’s 100th birth anniversary, the special also captures Armaan Jain proudly acknowledging the milestone that means so much to the family.
Viewers are treated to nostalgic visuals featuring Raj Kapoor, including glimpses of his iconic song Jhootha Hai Japani, while Neetu Kapoor playfully imitates the legendary actor-subtly paying respect to the towering cinematic legacy of the family. Glimpses of glamorous Bollywood gatherings also form a huge part of this reality show, featuring appearances by Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff among other industry favorites, contributing to the sense of camaraderie and celebration.
And, of course, that playfulness is captured superbly as Ranbir Kapoor and Armaan Jain tease each other in the kitchen, with Ranbir landing a light-hearted kick: Just for added measure, Agastya Nanda—Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson—joins the fun, reflecting the extended family’s close-knit bond.
So beautifully does Neetu Kapoor encapsulate the essence of the show when she says, “Joint families are so much fun.” The trailer ends with the entire family singing, “Jeena yahan, marna yahan,” celebrating togetherness and the enduring magic of the Kapoors.
Created and produced by Armaan Jain, who initially started his career as an assistant director before moving into acting, the series launches on Netflix on 21st November.
