Actor Kareena Kapoor really wowed the crowd at the 2025 IIFA Awards in Jaipur with an incredible tribute to her grandfather, the iconic Raj Kapoor. She took the stage on Sunday night, dancing to a mix of his classic songs, and fans couldn't stop raving about her performance.

Kareena honors Raj Kapoor

The Silver Jubilee edition of the International Indian Film Academy Awards 2025 (IIFA) took place in Jaipur this past weekend. On the final night, Kareena lit up the stage with her dance moves, performing classic Raj Kapoor hits like Mera Joota Hai Japani and Pyar Hua Ikraar Hua. Her performance was a real showstopper!

IIFA's official Instagram shared a video of the event, captioning it, “We're absolutely in love with this stunning tribute to Raj Kapoor for our Silver Jubilee celebration! #IIFA2025 #RajasthanTourism #IIFAJaipur #NEXA #CreateInspire #SobhaxIIFA.”

Fans were really impressed with how Kareena honored her grandfather. One comment said, “The best heir of Raj Kapoor paying tribute to him.” Another fan added, “Raj Kapoor would have been so proud of his granddaughter.” Some people were curious about why her cousin Ranbir Kapoor didn’t join her on stage, especially since he’s often compared to the late Raj Kapoor.

IIFA pays homage to the legacy of Raj Kapoor

Kareena recently shared her excitement about performing at IIFA 2025. "I'm thrilled to be back on the IIFA stage after so many years, especially for their Silver Jubilee Edition, celebrating Indian Cinema's Global Triumph right in the heart of Jaipur. It feels like our journeys have been intertwined, celebrating 25 years together in the film industry. This performance is particularly meaningful to me as it honors my legendary grandfather, Raj Kapoor, whose 100th birth anniversary was celebrated nationwide with immense love. It's a surreal experience to connect these moments and be part of this tribute to legacy, family, and the lasting impact of cinema," she mentioned in a press release.

Raj Kapoor is undeniably one of the most significant figures in Indian cinema. His films often highlighted social issues and reflected the dreams and challenges faced by everyday people.

As an actor, director, and producer, he transformed Bollywood with his distinctive storytelling style, magnetic screen presence, and his knack for blending music, drama, and humor in a way that truly resonated with audiences. Kapoor's contributions were also key in bringing Indian cinema to a global audience, ensuring his legacy extended well beyond the borders of the Indian subcontinent.
