Netflix has officially announced ‘Dining with the Kapoors’, a special documentary-style feature that offers audiences a rare seat at the table of Bollywood’s most iconic family — the Kapoors.
Premiering globally on November 21, the special marks 100 years of the legendary Raj Kapoor, and celebrates nearly a century of the Kapoor family’s contribution to Indian cinema — a dynasty that has shaped Bollywood both on and off the screen.
According to a release from Netflix Newsroom, the project has been created by Armaan Jain, directed by Smriti Mundhra (known for ‘Indian Matchmaking’ and ‘The Romantics’), and produced by Aavashyak Media. The film captures the warmth, wit, and nostalgia of the Kapoor family as they come together for their legendary annual lunch — a tradition that symbolizes their unbreakable bond, love for food, and shared cinematic heritage.
Shot in a documentary, fly-on-the-wall format, ‘Dining with the Kapoors’ promises an unfiltered look into the laughter, playful teasing, and emotional moments that define the Kapoor household.
The special brings together an illustrious cast of family members Randhir Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, Rima Jain, Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Karisma Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, and others — as they reflect on their family’s enduring legacy and the man whose vision continues to inspire generations, Raj Kapoor.
Speaking about the project, Tanya Bami, Series Head at Netflix India, said, “For close to a decade, Netflix has championed and expanded India’s appetite for documentary storytelling, exploring diverse genres and distinct voices within the format. With Dining With The Kapoors, we bring a story that is both momentous and heartwarming. As the Kapoor clan comes together to celebrate 100 years of their legendary patriarch, Raj Kapoor, the table overflows with food, laughter, and love. Under the expert direction of Smriti Mundhra, the film offers an intimate glimpse into the traditions, conversations, and bonds that define the Kapoor Khaandaan.”
Creator Armaan Jain expressed his emotions about the project, saying, “Bringing the Kapoor khandan together around the table felt like unlocking generations of stories — the laughter, the chaos, the endless food, and of course, the banter that’s basically in our DNA. Dining with the Kapoors is my way of honouring Nanaji (Raj Kapoor) and celebrating the timeless bond that continues to hold us together. There could have been no better partner than Netflix to bring this story to life and share it with audiences across the globe.”
From intimate conversations to heartfelt recollections of growing up in the first family of Bollywood, ‘Dining with the Kapoors’ is more than just a meal — it’s a celebration of legacy, love, and the magic of movies.
The table is set. Celebrate with the Kapoors on Netflix, streaming from November 21.
