The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives gang showed up in full force for the special screening of Shanaya Kapoor ’s debut film, 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan'. The screening, held just ahead of the film’s theatrical release, became the perfect occasion for longtime friends to celebrate Maheep Kapoor ’s daughter’s big moment.

Seema Sajdeh, Neelam Kothari, Bhavana Pandey, Shalini Passi, and Maheep Kapoor — the core five of the reality show that gave fans a glimpse into the glitzy lives of Bollywood’s inner circle — posed together for photos that radiated pride and excitement. Seema shared several pictures and clips from the evening, capturing the emotion of the moment.

“You’ve Come a Long Way” — Warm Words for Shanaya

In a heartfelt caption, Seema wrote, “Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan — Shanaya you’ve come a long way baby girl, we are all sooo proud of you and I think the pics are self-explanatory: how happy are we @shanayakapoor02 You ATE!" One video even featured a playful moment where Neelam and Shalini showed off Seema’s quirky fan-shaped clutch, calling themselves “fans” a nod to both the bag and the excitement around Shanaya’s debut.

Shanaya, touched by the support, responded with a simple, “Love u!!!” and a red heart emoji.

A Special Film, A Proud Debut

'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan', directed by Santosh Singh, is an emotional drama based on Ruskin Bond’s short story The Eyes Have It. In the film, Shanaya plays a theatre artist opposite Vikrant Massey , who portrays a blind musician. The film has been produced by Zee Studios in collaboration with Mini Films and Open Window Films.

The screening saw appearances from several industry names, including Arjun Kapoor , Ibrahim Ali Khan, Tabu, Rasha Thadani, and Chunky Panday, all lending support to Shanaya’s entry into Bollywood.

The film releases alongside 'Maalik', a gangster drama starring Rajkummar Rao and Manushi Chhillar, setting up an interesting box office clash.
