Meanwhile, Beckham was hosted for dinner by actor Sonam Kapoor and her husband Anand Ahuja at their Mumbai home. The dinner was also attended by the likes of Arjun Kapoor, Sanjay Kapoor, Shanaya Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Malaika Arora, Karisma Kapoor, Rhea Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, among others.
For Arjun Kapoor it was a childhood dream come true. Sharing a picture of him and Malaika Arora posing with Beckham, he wrote, "A night to remember…
To meet someone u have admired from afar for so many years & to be able to talk face to face with him about his new life in Miami, football, India, travel, his kids, philanthropy & everything else I could squeeze into a 15 minute dinner table chat. Grateful to have met @davidbeckham & completely in awe of his genuine sincerity towards spending time with all of us & being kind enough to allow every fan boy/girl in that room to feel elated to get a picture & time with him…
Thank You @sonamkapoor & @anandahuja for fulfilling this childhood dream of mine !!!"
Meanwhile, Sonam Kapoor's brother and actor Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor took to social media to share a picture with the footballer. He said that he was the only one at the party to have watched all of Beckham's matches. "Since I was probably the only person at that party that has actually watched every game beckhams played and passionately followed his career at united and beyond I felt like I should take a photo.. I’m now sharing it with the rest of the world since everyone else is sharing theirs".
