Rhea Kapoor looked stunning in a striped black suit, Harshvardhan appeared in a blue suit and looked dapper, and fashionista Sonam was all glitzy in a light-pink flurry gown. During the tete-e-tete, when Karan Johar asked Rhea Kapoor why her father, Anil Kapoor never asked her to become an actress, the Veere Di Wedding producer replied, "I can't tell you exactly what he said because he used some individuals' names. He was just afraid that I would be like a heroine's sister or just lurking around. He could see through my personality. The first day on your set Wake Up Sid, I knew I cannot become an actress."

Karan Johar then asked her if she was afraid to see Konkana Sen Sharam go through all the hair and makeup on the sets. To this, Rhea replied, "No, I can't just come in the middle of this gigantic process and say do whatever you like with me. I am too much of a control freak, I can't handle that."

On the show, the Kapoor siblings also revealed about their father, Anil's workout routine and revealed, "He goes to the gym, he works out for precisely 45 minutes but he’s in the gym for three hours. He’s walking around, looking at himself and then working out!" (Suggested Read: Rohit Sharma And Ritika Sajdeh Become Proud Parents, Is It A Baby Boy Or Girl? Here's The Answer)

Coming back to Rhea Kapoor, her recent film Veere Di Wedding came under severe criticism for the bold depiction of girls on the screen. Commenting on the same, Rhea shared with The Quint, "No, I think it’s for everyone. Like the boys have also loved the film. While for some guys it comes as a relief that they are finally watching girls that they can recognise and for some guys, it comes as a little bit of a shock. But I think that at least it’s engaging."

Unlike the previous seasons, apart from calling Sonam Kapoor a fashionista, Karan also called her a 'leftist liberal' this time. And amist the whole #MeToo movement in Bollywood, Sonam said, "I’m a huge advocate for LGBTQI (Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex). For me, it is one of the most important things that I fight for, and I hope for when there is a country and a world without labels. I’m very happy and proud that India has taken a step forward and people can live and love the way they want to love and that’s very important to me. And I think it should be very important to everybody in this world." (Also Read: Shibani Dandekar Shares A Cosy Picture With Boyfriend Farhan Akhtar, Gets Trolled By Netizens)
