In the post shared by Dharma Alia also looked back at her very first day on set. “I remember my first day of shoot for Kapoor and Sons was for Kar Gayi Chul, which went on to become such a big hit. So when you see me dancing in Kar Gayi Chul, I am actually just dancing,” she said.

She added, “I am just having like a great time. I don’t think that was very performative. It was just me genuinely having a good time and it’s also the vibe that Shakun Batra created.” Moreover, she recalled her time during the outdoor schedule. “I remember even when we went for our main outdoor to Coonoor, even though I had shoot on and off, I just stayed on. I was just there for the entire schedule.”

About Kapoor & Sons

Directed by Shakun Batra and backed by Karan Johar under Dharma Productions, Kapoor & Sons hit theatres on March 18, 2016. The film featured an ensemble cast including Sidharth Malhotra, Fawad Khan, Alia’s late father-in-law Rishi Kapoor, Ratna Pathak Shah, and Rajat Kapoor.

The story followed a dysfunctional family that reunites at their ancestral home. As they prepared to celebrate their grandfather’s birthday, long-standing conflicts, sibling rivalry, and emotional tensions came to the surface. The film struck a chord with audiences and enjoyed strong box office success.

Kar Gayi Chull Remains Iconic

One of the film’s biggest highlights remains the chartbuster Kar Gayi Chull. Featuring Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra, the track quickly turned into a party anthem. Its hook step went viral and continues to remain popular among the youth even today.

As Kapoor & Sons completes a decade, Alia Bhatt’s heartfelt memories add a nostalgic touch to the milestone. Her candid recall of those early days on set only reinforces the film’s lasting impact on audiences.
