The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has delighted Indian cinema fans by sharing a scene from Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani on its social media platforms.
The 2013 coming of age film, directed by Ayan Mukerji, stars Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor as Naina and Bunny, whose complicated relationship unfolds alongside the journeys of their close friends.
The Academy’s post quickly sparked an enthusiastic response from Indian audiences, with fans praising its choice to spotlight one of Bollywood’s most beloved films.
Netflix India joined the conversation with a playful reference to Bunny and Naina, while Dharma Movies, the film’s production house, called the scene one that will always hit different, universally.
Fans also joked that an Indian member of the Academy’s social media team must be behind the Bollywood love. Others praised the organisation for introducing Hindi cinema to a wider international audience and giving iconic Indian films their due recognition.
The Academy’s spotlight on Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani adds another chapter to Deepika Padukone’s connection with the Oscars.
In 2023, Deepika became one of the Indian stars to appear at the Academy Awards, where she introduced a performance of Naatu Naatu from RRR. The song went on to win the Oscar for Best Original Song.
Released in 2013, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani became a defining coming of age film for a generation. Its story follows four friends as they navigate ambition, love, friendship and the question of what it really means to find your way home.
The film’s emotional storytelling, memorable music and performances by Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin helped turn it into a lasting favourite.
