Reema Kapoor’s exact age is not publicly verifiable. No official birth record has been published, and unlike her four siblings she has no documented date of birth in any authoritative reference. She is Raj Kapoor’s youngest daughter, was born in the 1950s, married Manoj Jain in December 1988, and is the mother of actors Armaan and Aadar Jain. Any site quoting a precise date is repeating an unverified figure — and as shown below, the most widely circulated one cannot be correct.
Why the widely quoted date is wrong
Several profile sites state that Reema Kapoor was born on 28 September 1952. That date does not survive a basic check against her own family.
Her brother Rishi Kapoor was born on 4 September 1952, a date documented in every major reference and in his own published memoir. The two share the same parents. A sibling born 24 days after another, to the same mother, is not possible. The 1952 date is therefore an error that has been copied between profile pages rather than checked.
What can be said from the family record is narrower but sound. Raj Kapoor and Krishna Kapoor had five children with four documented birth dates:
| Child | Born | Status of record |
|---|---|---|
| Randhir Kapoor | 15 February 1947 | Documented |
| Ritu Nanda | 30 October 1948 | Documented |
| Rishi Kapoor | 4 September 1952 | Documented |
| Rajiv Kapoor | 25 August 1962 | Documented |
| Reema Jain (née Kapoor) | Not published | No verified record |
Since she is consistently described as the youngest daughter and Ritu was born in 1948, Reema’s birth falls somewhere after that — most probably in the mid-to-late 1950s, between Rishi and Rajiv. That is an inference from the family order, not a documented fact, and it is offered as such.
One related correction worth making: she is often called Raj Kapoor’s youngest child. She is not. Rajiv Kapoor, born 1962, was the youngest of the five. Reema is the youngest daughter.
Who is Reema Kapoor?
Reema Kapoor — known as Rima Jain since her marriage — is the youngest daughter of the filmmaker and actor Raj Kapoor and Krishna Raj Kapoor. She is a third-generation member of the Kapoor film family and one of the very few in it who never pursued a screen career, which is precisely why verified information about her is scarce.

The Kapoor family connection
The Kapoor line runs from Prithviraj Kapoor through Raj, Shammi and Shashi Kapoor, and onward to Randhir, Rishi, Rajiv and their children — including Karisma and Kareena Kapoor, Reema’s nieces, and Ranbir Kapoor, her nephew. Reema sits inside that family without ever having worked in front of a camera.
That distinction matters for anyone searching for her. She is not an actress, and the absence of a filmography is not a gap in the record — it is the record.
Marriage to Manoj Jain
Reema Kapoor married Manoj Jain, a businessman, in December 1988 in Mumbai, and took the name Rima Jain. The marriage came the year before her father’s death in 1988, and the couple have remained together since. Manoj Jain has never worked in the film industry.
Her sons: Armaan and Aadar Jain
Reema’s two sons are the reason her name is searched at all, and both did enter films.
Armaan Jain, the elder, made his acting debut in Lekar Hum Deewana Dil (2014). He married Anissa Malhotra in 2020 in a wedding widely covered because of the Kapoor family attendance.
Aadar Jain, the younger, debuted in Qaidi Band (2017) and has appeared in subsequent films. Both are grandsons of Raj Kapoor through their mother.
A life away from the camera
Reema Kapoor has given no significant interviews, maintains no verified public social media presence, and appears in press coverage almost exclusively at family occasions. This is a deliberate distance rather than an absence of opportunity, and it explains why so much of what circulates about her online — ages, net worth figures, career claims — has no verifiable source behind it.
On net worth specifically: no credible figure exists. She has no public business interests or disclosed holdings. Figures published elsewhere are estimates of the wider family’s wealth, or invented outright.

How old is Reema Kapoor?
Her exact age is not publicly verifiable. No official date of birth has been published, and unlike her four siblings she has no documented birth date in authoritative references. She was born in the 1950s, most probably between 1952 and 1962 based on the family birth order.
Was Reema Kapoor born on 28 September 1952?
