Arjun Kapoor praised Alia Bhatt after watching the trailer of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.
Karan Johar, Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh’s friends and colleagues from the industry have been taking to social media to heap praises on the trailer.
Days after superstar Shah Rukh Khan dropped the teaser of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Karan Johar has released the trailer of the film and it looks promising. Starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in the lead, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani offers a family drama we’ve all been craving for years now.
Karan, Alia and Ranveer’s friends and colleagues from the industry took to social media to heap praises on the trailer. Meanwhile, good friend of the lead cast, Arjun Kapoor, has also taken to Instagram stories to praise the trailer. That’s not all! He compared Alia to Academy Award- winning actress Meryl Streep yet again.
Sharing the trailer, he wrote, “The quintessential @karanjohar film. Can’t wait to watch it! Baba bringing Bittoo wali energy back & mini Meryll as always killing it!!!” Interestingly, Bittoo is Ranveer Singh’s character from his debut, Band Baaja Baaraat.
It all started when Arjun Kapoor took to Twitter to express his awe of Alia Bhatt’s acting in Gully Boy. After watching the teaser the Zoya Akhtar directorial, featuring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor took to Twitter to share his thoughts. He had tweeted, “Asli talent ki volcano Zoya Akhtar with apna dil ka raja Ranveer Singh and mini Meryl Alia Bhatt.”
Years later, when Alia took to social media to announce her Hollywood debut, Heart of Stone, he wrote, “Mini Meryl’s at it again…”
The post has now gone viral and netizens are having a field day. On Reddit, one user wrote, “I don’t think Meryl knows or even cares, but I would sue.” Another commented, “Mini Meryl Imagine being one good actress given all good roles available on platter and delivering in an above average amount, and then your co-actors overhype the shit out of your mediocre profile and you lose even the small amount of likeablity.”
The trailer of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani gives a glimpse into the lives of Rocky Randhawa and Rani Chatterjee, whose lives stand as a stark contrast to one another. While Rocky is a beefed-up Punjabi boy hailing from an affluent Punjabi family, Rani belongs to a Bengali household where knowledge and intelligence is given an importance over anything else. In what Karan had once described as a story from ‘a real life family anecdote’ that was shared by his father, late producer Yash Johar, these forces collide and fall in love, but there’s a twist.
