Ayan Mukerji echoed that sentiment while reflecting on the sheer amount of love for the movie. “This film feels like my second child. More than a decade later, I take an immense amount of pride in what we accomplished. It remains one of the biggest joys of my life, despite its fractures,” said Mukerji.
Originally released in 2013, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani has become a cult classic. The film carried an ensemble cast of Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Kalki Koechlin, and Aditya Roy Kapur that connected with audiences through themes of friendship, love, ambition, and self-discovery. Its iconic soundtrack with chartbusters like Badtameez Dil, Balam Pichkari, and Dilliwaali Girlfriend really is icing on the cake and has kept it in the hearts of fans of every generation.
With the film re-released, fans are preparing to relive the magic of the film on giant screens just like the new audiences can admire the charm of the film in the first place. Well, as Karan Johar said, ‘This re-release is a conversation starter for a clash of two worlds, and I think it is a perfect balance between the Millennial and the Gen Z’.
