Rocking With Bollywood’s Brother And Sisters Stars
In the ’60s and ’70s, all films in Bollywood had the mandatory Raksha Bandhan scene. The jobless hero is miserable because he does not have enough money to get his sister married off in the style she deserves. Not just that, he can’t even give her a decent gift for Rakhi. So, even as his sister waits patiently at home with the thali in her hand, the hero is sitting at the beach, tears flowing down his cheeks.
In ‘real’ life too, our heroes seem to be more caring towards their sisters than they are towards their lady loves. Shah Rukh Khan’s sister lives with him at Mannat. Salman Khan will never miss a single event if little sister Arpita requests him to be present. Aamir Khan has his issues with brother Faisal but he is also devoted to his sisters. Soha Ali Khan relies on her big brother Saif Ali Khan more than she does on her mother Sharmila Tagore. Sanjay Dutt’s sisters Namrata and Priya continue to stand by him despite his many misdemeanours.
Onscreen, the sister roles were generally relegated to Farida Jalal or Seema Deo. Today similar roles are given to Divya Dutta. But there were a few women who came on screen as sisters and had more of an impact than the heroine herself.Let’s take a look at the rocking brother-sisters on the big screen.
