Luv Sinha played the lead role in the film Sadiyaan. However, the film sunk at the box office without a trace and his acting career never took off the ground. Kush announced his first film as a director and signed his sister Sonakshi Sinha as a lead actor in the film and brother Luv Sinha will also be in a prominent role.This shows the affection of brothers and sisters. 2. Salman Khan & Arpita----:Like a elder brother , Salman cares for his sisters Arpita Khan and Alvira Khan Agnihotri . Every year he throws a lavish bash on Arpita's birthday and is helping Alvira and her husband Atul Agnihotri to be successful producers. He actively participates in Arpita's Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. 3.Saif and Soha ---- :The ex-royal siblings share quite a comfortable relationship with each other. Both joined Bollywood but their career graphs went separate ways.While currently saif is considered one of the biggest stars in bollywood already and given so many blockbusters, Soha is still struggling to make her mark in bollywood. Even Soha always praise his brother's wife kareena and share a wonderful relation with her. Saif as protective brother signed Kunal Khemu, who is also the beau of Soha Ali Khan in his home production Go Goa Gone. 4.Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta ----- :Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Nanda share a strong bond. She is a huge fan of chote bhai Abhishek's movies. Shweta is married to industrialist Nikhil Nanda. The duo has walked the ramp, did special photoshoots for magazines and is often together on chat shows. Shweta Nanda, is very close to Aishwarya also. Even She feels that Ash is a perfect mother and her determination is quite evident to all. 5.Kareena & Ranbir Kapoor-----:We have seen their bonding, during kareena's wedding where he performed a dance number with sister karisma kapoor. Now Real life cousins have finally agreed to come together for a film. Ranbir and Kareena have been approached to play the role of siblings in Zoya Akhtar's next film. The movie is slated to be shot in the summer of 2013 and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani. 5.Ekta & Tushar Kapoor------ :Out of Jeetendra's two kids, it's easy to tell who the dominating one is and who the wimp. Elder sister Ekta Kapoor, the Queen of Soaps, calls the shots. And younger brother Tusshar has to star in the flicks she decides for him. Even with her help, Tusshar's career has not been able to take off. He was in her film Shor in the City and The Dirty Picture also. 6.Ameesha & Ashmit Patel---- :Amisha Patel who has done many films in Bollywood has a handsome brother Ashmit who came into limelight with the show Bigg Boss.

Zoya & Farhan Akhtar----: With Zoya Akhtar's directorial debut Luck By Chance and the much recent Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, we saw that Farhan Akhtar knows how to keep his darling sister happy – by being a good brother on the sets of their film. Zoya has found a good actor in bhai Farhan and casts him in her both films. 8.Farah & Sajid Khan---- :Farah Khan and Sajid Khan share a very warm relationship; they have seen tough times together. While Farah is a successful choreographer and director, brother Sajid started out as a comedian on the silver screen. Now he has become director and made a successful movie Housefull. In fact, at a TV show Farah's eyes welled up when she talked about her brother Sajid after seeing an act. Farah even intervened when Sajid picked fight with Ashutosh Gowarikar in an award function.
