Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor hosted their mums Soni Razdan and Neetu Kapoor on Mother’s Day at a white-themed party at their residence.
Alia’s sister Shaheen Bhatt was also in attendance.
‘Precious moments with my precious ones #happymothersday,’ Alia captions the picture.
‘My loves Thank you for a wonderful Mothers Day celebration just so warm and fuzzy We feel so pampered and blessed @aliaabhatt @shaheenb #ranbirkapoor Love you all to the moon and back,’ Soni replies.
Alia later headed to London for the Gucci Cruise show.
And that, it seems, is Ranbir’s look for his epic film, Ramayana, the shoot for which is currently on.

Rasika Dugal dedicates her note to mum Raveen Dugal: ‘All giggles and all heart. The one whom I can share clothes with, who can smile through my grumpiness, call me out on my stupidity, make me giggle, and giggle with me. The maker of the yummiest dinner rolls full of maa ka pyaar.’
‘It’s hard to describe a day in my mother’s life. She manages to cook up a storm in the kitchen, attend her meetings, flutter through a million social commitments and learn how to play golf at 69!
‘If only I had half your energy and enthusiasm, Mother! @dugalraveen. You pretty much hit it out of the park in everything you do (with golf you’re still getting there).
‘Love you more than I let you know. And thanks for the giggling gene. It’s served me well.’
