30 October 2026 Punjab Khabarnama Bureau : Bollywood celebrities came together to celebrate Karwa Chauth 2026 at the Mumbai residence of actor Anil Kapoor and his wife Sunita Kapoor on October 29. The annual gathering witnessed several familiar faces from the film industry, including Aamir Khan with wife Gauri Spratt, Shah Rukh Khan’s wife Gauri Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Sonam Kapoor and Mira Rajput.
While the gathering was filled with festive appearances and traditional outfits, one detail caught the attention of fans: Gauri Khan attended the celebration without her husband, Shah Rukh Khan, who was not spotted at the venue.
The Kapoor family’s annual Karwa Chauth celebration has become a familiar Bollywood tradition, bringing together actors, filmmakers and their families. This year’s gathering also attracted attention because it marked Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt’s first Karwa Chauth as a married couple.
Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt Celebrate First Karwa Chauth After Wedding
Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt were among the most talked-about guests at Sunita Kapoor’s celebration. The couple arrived hand-in-hand at the Kapoor residence and paused to pose for photographers before entering the venue.
The occasion was particularly special for them as they celebrated their first Karwa Chauth after getting married on July 5, 2026. Their wedding took place in an intimate registered ceremony at Aamir’s residence in Mumbai.
For the festive evening, Aamir opted for a black-and-blue kurta set, while Gauri Spratt wore a royal blue Banarasi suit. She completed her traditional look with minimal accessories and subtle makeup.
Their appearance together quickly drew attention on social media, with photographs and videos from the event circulating online. Aamir’s participation in the celebration also became a talking point, as it was the couple’s first festival gathering of this kind following their wedding.
Gauri Khan Attends Without Shah Rukh Khan
Gauri Khan was another prominent guest at the celebration. She arrived at Sunita Kapoor’s residence without Shah Rukh Khan, who was not seen at the gathering.
For the occasion, Gauri chose a pastel-blue floral salwar suit with a matching dupatta. She completed her look with traditional accessories, a subtle bindi and sindoor.
Her appearance became a talking point among fans, particularly because Shah Rukh Khan was absent from the festivities. However, no specific reason for his absence was publicly established.
Gauri Khan is a regular face at social gatherings hosted by members of the Bollywood fraternity. Her presence at Sunita Kapoor’s annual celebration continued that association.

Sonam Kapoor attended the celebration at her parents’ residence in a traditional rust-orange and burgundy outfit, paired with statement jewellery. Shilpa Shetty opted for a pink saree with a contrasting green blouse, while Mira Rajput wore a champagne-gold saree.
Anshula Kapoor also had a special reason to celebrate this year. Following her marriage to Rohan Thakkar earlier in 2026, she marked her first Karwa Chauth as a married woman. The couple was also photographed arriving at the Kapoor residence.
The guests shared glimpses of the evening on social media, offering fans a look at the festive atmosphere and the traditional outfits worn for the occasion.

Sunita Kapoor’s Annual Karwa Chauth Tradition
Sunita Kapoor has hosted Karwa Chauth celebrations at her Mumbai residence for several years. The gathering brings together friends and family members from the film industry to observe the festival and spend time together.
Karwa Chauth is traditionally observed by married Hindu women, particularly in North India. Women observing the fast generally refrain from eating and drinking from sunrise until moonrise and perform rituals before breaking their fast.
The festival is associated with prayers for the long life, health and well-being of one’s spouse. Over the years, Bollywood celebrities have also shared photographs from their celebrations, making the occasion a regular feature of entertainment news.
This year’s gathering once again brought together several prominent personalities. Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt’s first celebration after marriage, Gauri Khan’s appearance without Shah Rukh Khan and the presence of several other celebrity couples made Sunita Kapoor’s Karwa Chauth evening one of the widely discussed Bollywood events of October 29.
