Writer Ishita Moitra’s take on Rocky Aur Rani
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani writer Ishita Moitra recently spoke about the film. The family entertainer follows the love story of Rocky Randhawa (Ranveer Singh) and Rani Chatterjee (Alia Bhatt), who belong to contrasting backgrounds and cultures. “It is about celebrating your differences, it’s a shout-out to inclusivity. There are many reasons why we hate someone or judge others, but it’s about rising above those differences, accepting each other, and living with love. We were playing with the same stereotypes,” she told news agency PTI.
“In the film, no one is perfect. Like, this (culture) is a stereotype but when you invert it, you dig deep, you fall in love with the differences… Eventually, they stand for each other, they rise above those (things). Everybody understands there’s no perfect community, perfect person or perfect love. You have to first make the stereotypes to break them,” she also added.
