The glitz and glamour of Bollywood met the warmth of tradition this weekend as the film industry came together to celebrate a rare double festive occasion. With Eid ul-Fitr marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan and Navroz (the Persian New Year) signaling the arrival of spring, social media feeds have been transformed into a vibrant gallery of traditional wear, family feasts, and messages of peace.
As the crescent moon was sighted across India on Friday night, leading to nationwide Eid celebrations on Saturday, March 21, 2026, the industry’s biggest names were quick to share the joy with their global fanbase.
A Message of Gratitude and Togetherness
Leading the charge was veteran actor Suniel Shetty, whose poignant message resonated deeply with fans. Eschewing the typical glitzy photoshoot, the Hera Pheri star focused on the essence of the day.
“May our homes be full of love, and our hearts even fuller,” Shetty posted. “May we always find reasons to sit together, share a meal, and just be grateful for everything we have. Praying for love and peace. Eid Mubarak.”
Action icon Akshay Kumar also kept it classic and sincere, sharing a festive greeting with his millions of followers: “Eid Mubarak to you and your loved ones.” Meanwhile, Sidharth Malhotra opted for a sleek, minimalist aesthetic, sharing a beautifully designed graphic featuring a crescent moon and lanterns to mark the occasion.
Family First: Glimpses of Celebrations
For many stars, 2026’s Eid was a strictly family affair. Saqib Saleem shared a heartwarming portrait featuring his parents and sister, actress Huma Qureshi, captioned simply as a celebration with “Mr. and Mrs. Mohammed Saleem Qureshi.”
The sports-meets-cinema power couple, Zaheer Khan and Sagarika Ghatge, also offered a rare peek into their home festivities. The couple looked regal in ethnic attire—Zaheer in a cream kurta and Sagarika in a striking red saree—as they posed with their son, Fateh. Their message focused on “peace, good health, and moments of joy.”
Navroz: Welcoming the New Day
Coinciding with the Eid festivities, the spirit of Navroz (the Persian New Year) was celebrated with equal fervor. Anil Kapoor, ever the ageless enthusiast, took to social media to wish his fans “Nowruz Mubarak.” Sharing a glimpse of a traditional festive spread, Kapoor wished for a year filled with “compassion, togetherness, and positivity.”
Other stars, including Madhuri Dixit, Sonam Kapoor, and filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, shared visually rich digital cards and personal notes, highlighting the cultural mosaic that defines the Indian film industry.
