Supriya Pathak’s latest revelation about her relationship with stepson Shahid Kapoor is refreshingly real—and unexpectedly touching. In a recent interview with BBC Hindi, the veteran actress spoke candidly about the emotional dynamics of her blended family, calling Shahid “really my son” and dismissing the stepmother label with grace, warmth, and a hint of fierce maternal pride.
Shahid Kapoor, born to actors Pankaj Kapur and Neeliima Azeem, was only three-and-a-half when his parents separated. In 1988, his father married Supriya Pathak, making six-year-old Shahid part of a new family. But for Supriya, it wasn’t just a marriage—it was the beginning of a mother-son bond she still holds close.
Supriya Pathak described her bond with Shahid Kapoor as that of a real mother and son, saying their relationship is no different from that of any biological parent and child. She considers Shahid, along with her children Ruhaan and Sanah, equally her own. With all three, she shares a bond filled with love, arguments, laughter, and deep friendship. Supriya made it clear that she never saw any distinction between her biological children and Shahid.
Supriya Pathak’s career
Supriya Pathak, who began her career in Gujarati and Hindi cinema, is best known for her iconic role as the delightfully eccentric Hansa Parekh in the Khichdi franchise. She has earned several accolades, including three Filmfare Awards and a Filmfare OTT Award. She was also part of the beloved 1980s show Idhar Udhar. Daughter of acclaimed actress Dina Pathak, Supriya’s lineage is steeped in performance and storytelling. Her sister, actress Ratna Pathak Shah, is married to veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah.
Supriya met her second husband, Pankaj Kapur, while filming Agla Mausam, and after two years of courtship, the two tied the knot in 1988. Together, they have two children—Sanah and Ruhaan—and have built a close-knit family that continues to thrive beyond Bollywood’s bright lights.
Most recently, Supriya appeared in Raid 2, starring Ajay Devgn, while Shahid Kapoor was last seen in Deva and has Arjun Ustara in the pipeline.
