Alia Bhatt, Sidharth Malhotra and Fawad Khan-starrer "Kapoor and Sons" is set to hit the screens March 18. Several Bollywood celebs have watched it at the special screenings, and have highly praised the Shakun Batra directorial on social media.
Produced under Karan Johar's Dharma Production, its trailer had already given a glimpse of the fun-filled film. It is a Punjabi family drama starring Rishi Kapoor as Dadu (grandfather) and Ratna Pathak Shah and Rajat Kapoor as parents.
The lead roles are played by Fawad as Rahul and Sidharth as Arjun. Tia (played by Alia) is their love interest. The Kapoor family unites when Rahul and Arjun return to their childhood home after five years. While living together, family secrets are unravelled and the characters seem to misunderstand each other. The film promises to be a roller-coaster ride.
After "Student of the Year," Sidharth and Alia are making their comeback on the big screen. Apart from the chemistry of the two rumoured lovebirds, people will also get to see Fawad and Alia's romance in the film.
Several celebrities like Sushant Singh Rajput, Anushka Sharma, Farhan Akhtar, Punit Malhotra and Mahesh Bhatt have praised the actors' performance and Shakun's direction on Twitter. Take a look at the tweets here:
