Ayan Mukerji's beloved film 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' reached a significant milestone on May 31, celebrating 11 years since its release. The film featured an ensemble cast starring
Ranbir Kapoor,
Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur, Kalki Koechlin, Kunaal Roy Kapur, and more. It's a lesser-known fact that Kunaal Roy Kapur's role of Taran in 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' was initially offered to
Bobby Deol, however, he couldn't take up the role.
In the film, Kunaal portrayed the character of Taran, the husband of Kalki Koechlin's character, Aditi. According to a trivia on IMDb, the role of Taran was first offered to Bobby Deol. Unfortunately, due to prior commitments, Bobby had already allocated his dates for 'Yamla Pagla Deewana 2,' leading him to decline the offer for this film.
In 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani,' Ranbir and Deepika essay the roles of Bunny and Naina, respectively, while Aditya Roy Kapur charms audiences with his portrayal of Avi. The storyline revolves around the journey of four friends—Bunny, Naina, Aditi, and Avi—embarking on a trip together. Although Bunny and Naina develop feelings for each other during the trip, Bunny's dedication to his career leaves little room for romance. However, their love story takes a turn when they reunite at Aditi's wedding, leading to the blossoming of their love.
