Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor recently shared a memorable moment with her sons, Taimur and Jeh Ali Khan, during an exclusive meet-and-greet with Argentine football icon Lionel Messi in Mumbai. Messi is in India as part of his much-awaited GOAT India Tour 2025, and the Kapoor family’s interaction has quickly become a talking point on social media.
A video from the event, which surfaced online on Sunday, shows Kareena posing proudly with her children beside the World Cup-winning footballer. As the photo session concluded, Kareena stepped aside to allow others to meet Messi. While she and elder son Taimur moved ahead, young Jeh surprised everyone by walking straight up to Messi and standing firmly beside him, clearly unwilling to leave his spot.
The moment left Kareena amused as she gently pulled Jeh away, prompting laughter both at the venue and online. Social media users were quick to react, with many calling Jeh’s reaction “a mood” and praising the child’s confidence and excitement. Several fans described the moment as adorable and one of the highlights of Messi’s Mumbai visit.
Earlier, Kareena had shared a glimpse from the day on Instagram, showing her holding her sons’ hands as they walked out together. For the occasion, Kareena opted for a khaki one-piece outfit, while Taimur and Jeh wore football jerseys. Taimur’s jersey featured Messi’s name, while Jeh proudly wore one marked “Argentina”.
