"Loved the memories we collected here, happy 10 years guys," Kalki wrote
10 years ago on this day, Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani released in theatres. With a stellar cast – Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapur – the film celebrates friendship, love and life in the most beautiful way. On its 10th anniversary, Kalki revealed some unknown facts about YJHD. She shared that Deepika used to teach “us a dance step we can't follow”. Sharing a video montage comprising some heartwarming scenes from the film, Kalki wrote, “How we have all grown and learnt since then and yet some things I can't imagine any different, like Deepika Padukone, will always be teaching us a dance step we can't follow; Aditya Roy Kapur will always be our big Lebowski; Ranbir (Kapoor) will always play a prank that makes us squeal, and Ayan Mukerji will always ask us uncomfortably personal questions that lead to the best conversations.” She added: “Loved the memories we collected here, happy 10 years guys.”
The video also shows Ayan Mukerji summing up Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani's importance in his life in a few words: “Almost everything that I experienced as a 20-year-old to almost 30 is packed into this film.” Deepika Padukone plays the role of a nerdy Naina who joins a group of friends – Kabir (Ranbir), Aditi (Kalki) and Avinash (Aditya) – on a trekking trip.
