Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor celebrated their daughter Raha's fourth birthday on 6 November with a pastel-themed party at home. Alia shared pictures on Instagram on 7 November showing a Bluey-themed cake, a pastel blue camper van centrepiece, and Raha colouring. The parents ensured Raha's face was not visible in the photographs. Neetu Kapoor shared a single Instagram Story image of a card reading 'Raha's Party' with a school van illustration.

Alia also posted photos of Ranbir and Raha from the sets of 'Ramayana', calling Ranbir's performance as Lord Rama 'incredible'. Ranbir told BBC that Raha visited the sets and filmed a shot with Sai Pallavi and Ravie Dubey. The sequel 'Ramayana Part 2' is scheduled to release in 2028.
Update, 7 November 2026: India TV and Times Now add no new facts: they confirm the same birthday celebration reported earlier, with India TV focusing on a father-daughter cake-cutting moment and Times Now describing Alia's Instagram album. All four outlets report identical details of the party decorations, cake, and Raha's face being kept out of the pictures.
All four outlets report Alia Bhatt's Instagram pictures of Raha's fourth birthday party without any discernible slant. Hindustan Times and Times Now describe the decorations in detail, India TV leads with the father-daughter cake-cutting moment, and Times of India adds Neetu Kapoor's Instagram story of a birthday card. None of the sources criticises the family for keeping Raha out of the spotlight or praises their privacy choices as a deliberate virtue: the coverage is uniform, straight reporting of a celebrity milestone. The only difference is which frame each outlet picks for its lead, the cake, the décor, or the family bond, but none carries a political, regulatory or ideological angle. The concrete follow-up is Ranbir Kapoor's 'Ramayana' sequel scheduled for 2028.
