At Maddock Films’ 20th anniversary bash held in Mumbai on Monday night, Naomika Saran, granddaughter of legendary actors Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, made a striking impression with her rare public appearance.
Accompanied by her iconic grandmother, Naomika effortlessly stole the spotlight as the two posed together on the red carpet, drawing the attention of both the paparazzi and fans alike.
Here is the video:
Naomika radiated elegance in a chic short black dress, her soft wavy curls adding a touch of timeless glamour. While her appearance was unexpected, it instantly ignited buzz online, with fans praising not just her beauty, but also her unmistakable resemblance to her late grandfather. “She resembles so much like Rajesh Khanna Sir. He was so handsome,” wrote one admirer. Another added, “Wow she look so pretty and innocent face,” capturing the mood of the internet, which quickly grew curious about the young woman with a legendary lineage.
Naomika, daughter of former actress Rinke Khanna and Sameer Saran, comes from Bollywood royalty. Rinke, the youngest daughter of Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, married in 2003, and Naomika was born the following year. Her extended family includes Akshay Kumar, who is married to Twinkle Khanna, making Aarav and Nitara her cousins.
Despite her famous roots, Naomika keeps a relatively low profile on social media, with only a modest number of posts on Instagram. Yet whenever she does appear online or in public, she manages to leave fans mesmerized. She previously made headlines with her 20th birthday post, which again drew comparisons to her grandfather’s charismatic presence.
Having recently completed her studies in London, Naomika shared glimpses from her graduation, a proud moment for the family, especially Dimple Kapadia, who appeared visibly emotional. Known to be close to Twinkle Khanna and Aarav Bhatia, Naomika’s latest appearance has left many wondering if she might be the next member of Bollywood’s first family to step into the spotlight.
