Imtiaz Ali’s Daughter Ida Ali Announces Engagement to Krish Agrawal in Norway
Love is truly in the air for the family of celebrated Bollywood director Imtiaz Ali. His daughter, Ida Ali, has officially announced her engagement to her long-time boyfriend, Krish Agrawal. The young filmmaker shared the happy news with her followers on social media, giving them a glimpse of a romantic and picturesque proposal that took place during the couple's recent holiday in Norway.
The magical moment unfolded at Ytresand, a beautiful location nestled in the scenic Lofoten Islands of Norway. On Sunday, 12 July 2026, Ida took to her Instagram to share a heartwarming video capturing the exact moment Krish proposed. The short clip showed an emotional and overjoyed Ida reacting to the surprise before turning the camera to display her stunning diamond engagement ring. Proving that romance knows no bounds, she captioned the post simply with the date, time, and location of the special event: "01/07/26 11pm Ytresand."
Shortly after sharing the video, Ida posted a follow-up series of beautiful photographs from the evening. The images captured the classic fairytale moment, showing Krish down on one knee against a breathtaking backdrop of dramatic Norwegian mountains and the late-evening sky. Additional photos showed the happy couple sharing warm embraces and radiant smiles after Ida happily said "yes", marking the official beginning of their new chapter together.
Among the well-wishers was actress Khushi Kapoor, who left a sweet note saying, "So Cuteee". Meanwhile, rising stars Vedang Raina and Sharvari, who have closely interacted with the family, also sent their heartfelt congratulations to the newly engaged couple. Other notable names from the younger Bollywood circle, including Orry, Anurag Kashyap’s daughter Aaliyah Kashyap, Alizeh Agnihotri, and actress Ahsaas Channa, left affectionate messages to mark the joyful occasion.
While Imtiaz Ali did not initially issue an official statement to the press regarding his daughter's engagement, the proud father showed his support in a characteristically witty way. When a media publication mistakenly reported Ida’s age as 26 while covering the news, the acclaimed director shared the post on his Instagram stories with a light-hearted correction, writing, "25-year-old, please."
Carving Her Own Path in Cinema
While she is the daughter of one of India’s most influential contemporary filmmakers famous for modern romantic classics like Jab We Met, Rockstar, and Tamasha. Ida Ali has been quietly carving out her own distinct identity within the film industry. Eschewing the typical limelight often associated with star children, she has prioritised her craft behind the camera.
Ida has already built a respectable portfolio as a writer and director, having helmed well-received short films and projects such as Maya, Lift, and Thai Massage. Imtiaz Ali has previously spoken highly of his daughter's innate talent, describing her as a "fine filmmaker" and noting that the two have shared a deep bond rooted in storytelling ever since she was a young child.
The happy personal news comes at a time when Imtiaz Ali is also experiencing a successful phase in his professional life. His latest directorial project, the period drama Main Vaapas Aaunga starring Diljit Dosanjh, Naseeruddin Shah, Sharvari, and Vedang Raina has received immense praise from audiences and critics alike for its deeply moving, poetic narrative.
With both father and daughter achieving significant milestones in their respective lives, the Ali family certainly has plenty of reasons to celebrate this summer.
