Mumbai/IBNS: It has been 10 years since Ayan Mukerji’s romantic-comedy film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, a tale of friends undertaking a trekking trip wrapped in love and romance, was released on the big screens.
The story is centred on two people, played by Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, who fall in love with one of them refraining to express it.

Apart from the popular onscreen pair Ranbir-Deepika, the film starred Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin in the lead.
As the coming-of-age romance clocked a decade on Wednesday, the four actors and the makers met to celebrate the moment in a party.
Reiterating one of her lines from a scene in the film, Deepika, who is now a superstar in the Hindi film industry, posted some pictures from the reunion.
She wrote, “Memories are like a box of sweets. Once you open it, you cannot stop at one-Naina Talwar.”
Apart from the lead actors, producer Karan Johar, music director Pritam, costume designer Manish Malhotra were also present in the reunion party.

Celebrating the film, Ayan took to Instagram on Wednesday to post a long note.
An excerpt of Ayan’s post reads, “I think after all these years, I can confidently say that… Making this movie was one of the greatest joys of my life! And what we achieved with it – with all its perfections and imperfections – is a source of great eternal pride for me!
“Strangely, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani fully from beginning to end, since the day it released … (Always pushing towards the next milestone, and not looking back enough…!).”
He added, “But when I’m older and wiser – I think I will watch the movie atleast once a year – because a big part of who I was and how I looked at life – is forever captured in this movie !”
