Rome [Italy], July 8 : Veteran actor Neetu Kapoor turned a year older on Saturday.

To celebrate her birthday, the 'Jug Jugg Jeeyo' actor recently jetted off to Italy along with her daughter Riddhima Kapoor, son-in-law Bharat and granddaughter Samara.

Neetu's son and actor Ranbir Kapoor also joined his family for the birthday celebration. During his departure a day before, he was spotted at the Mumbai airport, wherein he was seen requesting the paparazzi not to post the pictures on the same day as it would ruin the surprise for his mom. Interestingly, Ranbir reached Italy in time to be with his mom on her special day.

On her birthday, she took to her Instagram account and shared a happy family picture which she captioned, "Beautiful cherished day missed @aliaabhatt #raha ( my loves )"
