I personally think personal contact is allowed between brother and sister if it remains within decency limits. A brother at the time of rukhsati of his sister can kiss her sister on cheek along with forehead because he can be emotional at that moment (even if he did not ever kissed her on cheeks before). The niyyat is what counts I think as suggested by ZK and the niyyat is always pure in majority of the cases.
