Junaid Khan, son of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, is gearing up for his big debut in the film industry with Loveyapa, set to release on February 7, 2025. The movie, which stars Khushi Kapoor, has been building up excitement among fans ever since its trailer dropped. But while Junaid is making headlines for his acting career, it’s his quirky family tradition that’s stealing the spotlight these days.
Ahead of his sister Ira Khan’s wedding to Nupur Shikhare, Junaid shared a funny and light-hearted story about his brother-in-law. Turns out, Nupur had a rather memorable introduction to the Khan family, thanks to Junaid’s unconventional “test” for anyone dating his sister.
According to Junaid, he has a little ritual for anyone who gets close to Ira. He challenges them to a drinking contest. Yes, you read that right—a drinking contest! The rules are pretty simple: pick a liquor, take a shot every 15 minutes, and keep going until one of them gives up. If the challenger can’t handle it, they lose. It’s all in good fun, but Junaid admits that it’s a way for him to see Ira’s suitors at their most vulnerable—completely drunk!
Junaid laughed as he recalled how this particular challenge played out with Nupur. “He passed out and cuddled with me on my bed after he lost the contest,” Junaid shared, adding a hilarious twist to the story. He joked that Nupur wasn’t the only one to have failed this test, but in Nupur’s case, he took it in stride—and in his sleep, no less!
It’s clear that Junaid’s quirky test has become a bit of a family tradition. He added that it was all about bonding with the people who were dating Ira. It was his way of getting to know them a little better, albeit under some very unique circumstances. Interestingly, Junaid also mentioned that most of Ira’s past relationships didn’t last long enough for the drinking contest to even take place. But now that Ira has found Nupur, the challenge seems to have stuck, and the two share a memorable moment that fans are now loving.
What’s even more amusing is the fact that this whole tradition is tied to Junaid’s protective side as an older brother. He admits that it’s a fun way of making sure the guy who’s interested in his sister can handle some pressure, even if that pressure involves alcohol. Junaid’s humor shines through as he points out that most of Ira’s past relationships ended long before they ever got to the drinking contest phase.
For Nupur, however, it seems like the challenge was a rite of passage he didn’t quite expect. Despite losing the contest, Nupur seems to have passed Junaid’s test in other ways. After all, he’s about to marry Ira, and that’s no small feat.
As the wedding day approaches, fans are eager to see the couple tie the knot, but it’s clear that this hilarious story will be one of the many cherished memories that Junaid will look back on when he thinks of Nupur. In fact, it might even become a part of their family folklore for years to come.
In the midst of the wedding excitement, Junaid is also preparing for his movie debut, which has caught the attention of many Bollywood fans. The movie Loveyapa features Junaid in a leading role alongside Khushi Kapoor, and its trailer has already gained a lot of buzz. Fans are hoping that Junaid’s unique sense of humor and charm will translate well on screen, just as it does in his personal stories.
With a family as entertaining as his, Junaid’s career is already off to a great start. Between his debut film and his fun antics with his family, there’s no doubt that Junaid Khan will continue to capture the spotlight for years to come.
So, as the Khan family gets ready for Ira and Nupur’s wedding, we can only imagine what other hilarious stories Junaid might have up his sleeve!
