A host of Bollywood stars celebrated Raksha Bandhan on Monday and shared their special moments with siblings on social media for their fans. The first to top the list is global star Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who shared a stunning picture from her wedding in 2018 surrounded by her brother Siddharth Chopra as well as the Jonas Brothers (Kevin and Joe). Alongside the picture, the Baywatch actress wrote that she is blessed to have these wonderful men in her life.

“Happy Raksha Bandhan to everyone celebratin­g and to my incredible brood of brothers. I’ve always loved this special festival that celebrates the bond between brothers and sisters. I feel so blessed to have these wonderful, sensitive, supportive men in my corner always. I miss you all so much (sic),” PeeCee wrote.

The actress is in Los Angeles with her husband Nick Jonas and couldn’t celebrate the day with brother Siddharth in India. PeeCee virtually sent her love and demanded for a gift. “Sending lots of love and hugs and oh also...as part of tradition... waiting for my gifts (sic),” she wrote.

Similarly, actor Ranbir Kapoor and his cousins Aadar and Armaan Jain also received a bunch of love from sister Riddhima Kapoor on the day of Raksha Bandhan. Riddhima has been staying with Ranbir and Neetu Kapoor since the demise of her father and actor Rishi Kapoor. Wishing her brothers, Riddhima shared a collage of pictures.

Actress Kangana Ranaut too received a surprise sundown dinner followed by head massages from her brothers. Taking to Instagram, Kangana’s team uploaded a video that sees the actress’ brothers cooking dinner while watching the sunset. “On the eve of #Rakshaband­han, Rangoli & Kangana’s brother’s surprised them with a sun-down dinner. Not only did they cook for them, but gave head massages as well. Here are some glimpses of the lovely full moon night (sic),” Kangana’s team captioned the video.

Additional­ly, Soha Ali Khan too shared a picture of Taimur Ali Khan and Inaaya Naumi. While Taimur is seen copying mom Kareena Kapoor Khan’s signature pout, Inaaya on the other hand is gawking at him. Soha captioned the picture, “On the ball and in my corner. #happyraksh­abandhan #timandinni.” Later, Kareena laughed about Taimur’s expression. She wrote, “Inni wondering how Tim got that pout (sic).”
