Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani was released just around the time when Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer and Greta Gerwig’s Barbie hysteria reached their peak globally and in India. However, trade analysts don’t see Hollywood films having an impact on Hindi films.

Meanwhile, Alia earlier took to Instagram to express her gratitude to her viewers. She shared a cute picture with Ranveer and Karan and captioned: "Love hain toh sab hain (There is everything if there is love)!!! From the bottom of our hearts .. thank you for all the love.. eternally grateful! Love, Rocky, Rani and our maker of this Kahaani (story) #RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahaani."

Aside from Ranveer and Alia, the movie has a spectacular cast of Bollywood veterans such as Dharmendra, Shabana Azmi and Jaya Bachchan. Sara Ali Khan, Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor and Ananya Panday have cameo appearances in the film. Backed by Dharma Productions, the movie marked the return of Karan to the director’s chair after a hiatus of seven years. His last directorial was Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
