The photographs also showed Saif and Ranbir engaging in a conversation with PM Modi.
However, the highlight of the post was Kareena seeking an autograph for her sons, Taimur and Jeh from the PM. The Prime Minister graciously wrote “Tim and Jeh” on a piece of paper, a gesture that delighted the fans on social media.
In a heartfelt post, Kareena expressed her gratitude for the special meeting. “We are deeply humbled and honoured to have been invited by the Honourable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, to commemorate the extraordinary life and legacy of our grandfather, the legendary Raj Kapoor. Thank you Shri Modi ji for such a special afternoon. Your warmth, attention, and support in celebrating this milestone meant the world to us,” she wrote.
