Before the pandemic struck, India’s Holi celebrations were crazy and Bollywood Holi parties were goals for many. While the festival of colors is celebrated by all, there are a few families in the film world which are well known for their epic bashes:
Raj Kapoor
The film industry not always had Holi parties until late legendary actor and filmmaker Raj Kapoor stepped in. He started the trend and then others followed. He would throw lavish parties at the well-known R K Studios where most of the film fraternity would come together and de-stress.
