Bollywood’s famed Kapoor clan lately organized a grand celebration to commemorate completion of 40 years of the very popular Prithvi Theatres.

Owned and run by Bollywood’s first family, the Kapoors, the theatre is a hub for artists who dedicate themselves to the performing arts.

On this occasion Shashi’s son Kunal Kapoor, who handles operations of Prithvi Theatre, hosted a star-studded party along with his children Zahaan and Shaira Laura. Eminent personalities from cinema, theatre, music and media graced the occasion.

Besides, actors Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan graced the occasion and played the perfect hosts.

Actor Prithviraj Kapoor started the Prithvi Theatre in 1944 as a travelling group of artistes to perform all over India. After his demise, actor Shashi Kapoor took over and built the Prithvi Theatre at Juhu, Mumbai in 1978.

Prithvi Theatre is a platform for creative artistes to showcase their talent, and works to promotes India’s theatre culture.  Several Indian and international artistes and theatre groups perform here during the festival.
