Aamir Khan, who was there to support his son, Junaid Khan, said, "I have been such a huge fan of Sri (Sridevi) from the very beginning. I think I will always be her biggest fan. As you all must know, since I came into the industry—I don't know if today's youngsters know this—I have always only spoken about Sridevi, and it was my dream that one day I would get to work with Sri, which I unfortunately didn't. It's Khushi's film, and it is a very important moment for me. When I watched the film (which I have already seen), it felt like I was watching Sridevi again. That is what I have felt."
He further extended his best wishes to Khushi Kapoor and Junaid Khan for their very first theatrical film. He said, "I pray for you, and wherever Sri is, I am sure she is looking at you with a lot of pride, joy, and happiness in her heart. I remember her today with a lot of fondness, and it would've been so nice if she were here today."
The trailer for Loveyapa, an upcoming romantic comedy featuring Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, was released today. The film presents a relatable story of modern relationships, focusing on the complexities of love among Gen Z.
