"It was very refreshing": Actress Sadia Khateeb on her working experience in film 'Daadi Ki Shaadi'
Mumbai, May 4
Actress Sadia Khateeb opened up about her experience in the upcoming film 'Daadi Ki Shaadi', which also stars Neetu Kapoor and Kapil Sharma in the lead roles.
While talking to ANI, Sadia Khateeb called 'Daadi Ki Shaadi' more than a comedy film, which carries an important message.
"I remember the entire journey of this film. This has been the most beautiful journey of my personal career. Just shooting this film has been the most delightful experience for me because of all the co-stars I got an opportunity to work with, because of the technicians, our director and everyone who was present on the film set. They made this film not feel like we were working but felt like an atmosphere of a family," said Sadia Khateeb.
"This film is more than just a comedy; it's a story of a message. People are not understanding this after watching the trailer, but when you watch it, you will understand that this film gives you a very deep message which will resonate with everyone in this world," said Sadia Khateeb.
The actress has earlier worked in films like 'Shikara' and 'The Diplomat', which were intense dramas, as the former was based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits, while the latter was a political thriller film.
Khateeb calls her experience in Daadi Ki Shaadi "refreshing", contrary to her prior experience in the industry.
"The three films I did before this were very intense. I can say so, and as an actor, we feel like we are acting, but at the end of the day, we are humans. This character, when it came to me it was completely different from whatever I have portrayed so far in my last three films. It was very refreshing," said Sadia Khateeb.
Produced by Rtake Studios, BeingU Studios and Shimla Talkies, 'Daadi Ki Shaadi' is written and directed by Ashish R Mohan.
'Daadi Ki Shaadi' also stars Riddhima Kapoor Sahni in the lead role. The movie will release in theatres on May 8, 2026.

Good to see actresses getting diverse roles. After intense films like Shikara and The Diplomat, a comedy with a message is a smart move. Hope the "deep message" isn't just gimmicky.
Kapil Sharma's comic timing + Neetu Kapoor's grace = box office magic! And Sadia seems genuinely excited. Hope the trailer does justice to the message they're talking about.
Looking forward to Riddhima Kapoor Sahni's debut! She's always been the silent strength in that family. Also, Sadia's journey from Shikara to this shows her range. 👏
Honestly, I'm tired of all the action and drama. A family comedy with a heart is exactly what we need. May 8, 2026? Marking my calendar! 🗓️
Interesting to see an actress openly contrast her previous intense roles with this. It shows she's not just another star but an artist who values diverse experiences. Hope the film lives up to the hype.
The fact that she mentions the set felt like a family is such a nice thing. Bollywood needs more of that warmth behind the scenes. Can't wait to see how Kapil and Neetu play off each other!
