Dil Dhadakne Do (English: Let the Heart Beat) is a 2015 Indian comedy drama film directed by Zoya Akhtar and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar. The film features an ensemble cast of Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma with Farhan Akhtar in a special appearance and Aamir Khan performing voice-over as the narrator of the film in addition to Rahul Bose, Zarina Wahab and many more others in supporting roles. The film tells the story of a dysfunctional Punjabi family who invite their family and friends along on a cruise trip to celebrate the parents' 30th wedding anniversary. The film was released worldwide on 5 June 2015.
Kamal Mehra (Anil Kapoor) is a self made businessman who owns Ayka, a company on the verge of bankruptcy. He has a troubled relationship with his wife, Neelam Mehra (Shefali Shah) and his two children, Ayesha Sangha née Mehra (Priyanka Chopra) and Kabir Mehra (Ranveer Singh). The Mehra family also includes their pet dog Pluto Mehra (voiced by Aamir Khan). Ayesha owns a successful travel portal of her own but is unhappy with her marriage to Manav Sangha (Rahul Bose), a controlling, narcissistic husband who, together with his mum Smita Sangha (Zarina Wahab), disdains Ayesha's family. Kabir unwillingly participates in the family business even though he yearns to become a pilot.
In celebration of Kamal and Neelam's 30th wedding anniversary, they invite their family and friends for a 10-day cruise across the Mediterranean. Among their invitees are the Sood family, consisting of businessman Lalit Sood (Parmeet Sethi), his wife Naina Sood (Dolly Mattdo) and their daughter Noori Sood (Riddhima Sud). Kamal and Neelam plan to get Kabir married to Noorie, in exchange for Lalit Sood investing in Ayka.
