Dil Dhadakne Do Vs Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara: 10 Similarities

Zoya Akhtar's much-awaited film Dil Dhadakne Do trailer was released last night and I could not help myself but think about all the similarities between this and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.

The film has a big ensemble cast of Anushka Sharma, Ranveer Singh, Shefali Shah, Anil Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar and tells the story of a dysfunctional Punjabi family on a cruise trip.

Kamal Mehra played by Anil and Neelam Mehra by Shefali are worried about their two children played by Ranveer and Priyanka. They want Ranveer to get married and Priyanka, not to get divorced.

Several actors took to Twitter to praise the movie trailer...

Rishi Kapoor, who has worked with Zoya in Luck by Chance said, "Good show Zoya. Your trailer heralds the storm that is coming! All looking good special mention to Anil Kapoor. He looks dashing."

Sridevi said, "Saw trailer of 'Dil Dhadakne Do'. Fabulous looking wholesome entertainer. Absolutely spellbound! @AnilKapoor @FarOutAkhtar @priyankachopra."
