Tahira Kashyap Posts Pics From Kashmir Holiday With Kids And Parents: 'Most Testing Age Groups'

Do not disturb Tahira Kashyap. She is soaking in every bit of her Kashmir getaway. The filmmaker-writer is currently on a family holiday, joined by her parents, Yajan Kashyap and Anita Kashyap. Making the trip even more special, Tahira and Ayushmann Khurrana's kids, Virajveer and Varushka, are also part of the snowy escape. Ayushmann, however, seems to be missing from the family scenes this time.

Giving fans a glimpse into the vacation, Tahira Kashyap dropped a series of photos and videos on Instagram – and they are packed with easy, feel-good moments. The opening clip shows her sitting quietly in the middle of a snow-covered landscape, with fresh snow falling all around. The next few visuals shift focus to her parents, who seem to be having just as much fun. From soaking in the views to enjoying the snow, their moments add a warm, personal touch to the whole album.

There is also a fun frame of Tahira with her father as the two head out for a bit of adventure on ATVs. In another clip, little Varushka is seen lying in the snow, happily making a snow angel – one of those candid moments that instantly makes you smile. But it is the final slide that really stands out. It shows Tahira's father planting a sweet kiss on her mother's cheek, while she blushes at the gesture. Did you just say “awwww”?

In her caption, Tahira Kashyap wrote, “Kashmir in all its glory. Made so many new memories with mom dad and kids! The two most testing and rewarding age groups. Discovered that mama still force feeds papa, that papa loves the mountains so much that he can live as a snowman, that my son doesn't like anything extreme, that my daughter could become an action stunt master and that I am very patient and also grateful for each of them!”

The filmmaker added, “Oh and also kids promoted nanu, nani to (kiss emoji) and they did with nanu planting a peck on Nani's cheek and nani blushing to no end (check the last slide)”

Things to do in Kashmir

If Tahira Kashyap's family getaway has you thinking about a Kashmir trip, here are five things you should add to your itinerary: 

1. Ride a shikara on Dal Lake

Start your trip with a calm shikara ride. It is slow, peaceful and perfect for soaking in the views. You will see houseboats, mountains and even floating shops. Early morning or sunset works best for soft light and fewer crowds.

2. Head to Gulmarg for snow fun

If you like snow, this is your spot. Try skiing in winter or just walk around and enjoy the white views. The gondola ride is a highlight and gives great views from the top.

3. Spend time in Pahalgam

This place feels calm and open. Think green fields, rivers and fresh air. You can go for easy walks, sit by the water, or take a pony ride to nearby spots.

4. Walk through the Mughal Gardens

These gardens are clean, well-kept and full of flowers in season. It is a nice place to slow down, click photos and enjoy a relaxed day without rushing.

5. Eat local food 

Food here is simple but full of flavour. Try Rogan Josh, Yakhni and sip on warm Kahwa. Local meals feel comforting, especially in the cold weather.
