Special 26 is an underrated gem! The whole cast was brilliant. It's nice to hear they still share a bond. Also, "conversations about Kashmiri in-laws" – that's such a specific and funny Indian topic to bond over! 😂

Respectfully, while the story is sweet, I wish our veteran actors would use their platform to highlight more pressing issues sometimes, not just flight selfies. The industry has bigger conversations to have.

This is so wholesome! In an age of constant phone distraction, his point about having a real conversation with "no mobile phones" really hits home. We could all use more of that.

"Self-assured and real" – high praise from a legend like Kher sir. Kajal Aggarwal has carved her own space in both Hindi and South industries with grace. Wishing her more success!

The film, food, and spa talk I get... but bonding over Kashmiri in-laws? That's peak Indian auntie-level conversation and I am here for it! 😄 Makes them seem so relatable.
