In his post, Akshay shared a touching note celebrating Simar’s achievement. He wrote, “I remember the first time I saw my photo on the cover of the newspaper. I thought that’s the ultimate happiness. But today I know the happiness of seeing your child’s photo here beats everything.”
Akshay also took a moment to honour his late mother, Aruna Bhatia, Simar’s grandmother. He wrote, “I wish my mom was here today and she would have said, ‘Simar puttar Tu tah Kamaal hai (Dear Simar, you have done wonders).’ Bless you my baby, the sky is yours.”

Who is Simar Bhatia?
Simar Bhatia is the daughter of Akshay Kumar’s sister, Alka Bhatia. Alka, a film producer, married Vaibhav Kapoor in 1997, and they had Simar, though the couple eventually separated. In 2012, Alka remarried real estate tycoon Surendra Hiranandani.
Simar, who is steadily gaining attention on social media, currently boasts over 12.7K followers on Instagram. Although she has kept her presence relatively low-profile, sharing only occasional glimpses of her holidays, childhood memories, and moments with college friends in the USA, where she completed her higher education, her recent post from a photoshoot marks the beginning of her journey in Bollywood.

Simar is set to make her Bollywood debut in Ikkis, a film directed by Sriram Raghavan. She will star alongside Agastya Nanda, the grandson of Amitabh Bachchan, with veteran actors Dharmendra and Jaideep Ahlawat also featured in the film. Set against the backdrop of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, Ikkis tells the story of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, who was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra for his extraordinary bravery. Produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films, the film is slated for release later this year.
