How did your favourite Bollywood stars bring in New Year 2019?

After a slew of winter weddings and countless Christmas parties, 2018 finally came to a close this weekend, and Bollywood’s favourite faces bid the year that was farewell in the grandest of manners. While some welcomed 2019 with buzzing parties, others chose to spend the occasion away from the country with their nearest and dearest. No matter where they were, however, the stars made sure to share their New Year’s Eve experiences with the world via their social media feeds. If you missed out on Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Sonam K Ahuja, Alia Bhatt and Kareena Kapoor Khan‘s last few moments of 2018, here’s a quick recap.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sonam K Ahuja ring in the new year with their Significant Others

For Sonam K Ahuja, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Neha Dhupia, December 31, 2018 was their first New Year’s eve as newly-weds, and all three stars chose to spend the special evening with their husbands. Holidaying in a tropical spot, Kapoor Ahuja shared a picture of herself with Anand Ahuja on January 1 counting all her blessings from the year, and somewhere in Switzerland, Priyanka Chopra Jonas brought 2019 in with a kiss from Nick Jonas. Dhupia, who also became a mother this year, posted an interesting snapshot of herself with Angad Bedi, saying “This definitely was and always will be the most special year of my life… you made me a wife and a mother.” Another adorable couple picture that’s been doing the rounds is that of Anushka Sharma and husband Virat Kohli, who celebrated their second new year as a married couple this weekend.

The Pataudis, Bachchans and Kapoors enjoy family time

For many Bollywood stars this year, New Year’s eve brought the chance to spend some quality time with family. While Alia Bhatt joined beau Ranbir Kapoor for a fun-filled New Year’s dinner with Neetu and Rishi Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan spent the last few days of 2018 enjoying some time in the snow with husband Saif Ali Khan and son Taimur Ali Khan Pataudi. To escape the December chill, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Aaradhya Bachchan spent their New Year’s eve at the beach, while Mira Rajput Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor seemed to have brought the year to an end with some quiet time with their kids at home.

Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor celebrate the new year in Mumbai

While most chose to kickstart 2019 outside of India, some Bollywood stars stayed close to home this festive season. Among the many parties that lit up Mumbai on December 31, Sonali Bendre‘s New Year’s Eve-cum-birthday celebration was one to remember, and was attended by everyone from Sussanne Khan and Hrithik Roshan to Kunal Kapoor and wife Naina Bachchan. Not too far away, Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor chose to usher 2019 in with a house party of their own, and one of the sweetest pictures to emerge from the get-together was that of Malaika Arora, Arjun Kapoor and Karan Johar standing alongside the hosts, captioned “Family”.
