Dil Dhadakne Do turns 8: Ranveer and Priyanka’s on-screen mom Shefali Shah reveals why she insisted for chocolate sauce

Zoya Akhtar’s multi-starrer ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’, starring Ranveer Singh, Farhan Akhtar, Priyanka Chopra, Anil Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Shefali Shah completes 8 glorious years today, but the family entertainer still continues to hold the same freshness, emotions and laughter among the cinema lovers across the globe even today.

Apart from the stellar cast, brilliant screenplay and exotic locations, the movie was also hugely appreciated for prolific performances and unforgettable scenes, especially the iconic cake scene featuring Shefali Shah! For those who have watched the film, will vouch for the same and the way Shefali pulled it off so effortlessly! The versatile actor who graced Kareena Kapoor Khan’s popular chat show recently, spilled the beans on the iconic cake scene from the film, also confessing that it was the scene that made her say yes to the film!

Elaborating on the scene and sharing how it has been relatable for many people Shefali said, "It is such a powerful moment. So many people have come up to me and told me that they have done it. I was called a day before and asked as to what I would like to eat since we were supposed to shoot it the next day. They gave me baklava as option since we were in Turkey when we were shooting that scene. I insisted for chocolate syrup, not for the taste of it but I wanted it to be messy and I wouldn’t choke on a dry cake,” she concludes.

While Shefali Shah has had a spectacular 2022 with 5 hits to her credit, including ‘Human’, ‘Darlings’, ‘Jalsa’, ‘Doctor G’ and ‘Delhi Crime 2’, all eyes are now on her highly-anticipated third season of ‘Delhi Crime’ amongst other interesting projects.
