Ahead of the worldwide release of “Befikre” on 9th December, in collaboration with Yash Raj Films, H.E. Mr Alexandre Ziegler, Ambassador of France to India, co-hosted a very special soirée to celebrate Befikre with Ms Sanya Dhir, Creative Director-DIVA’NI, at the Residence of France in New Delhi, Starring leads Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor.

Commending the film, Ambassador of France, H.E. Mr Alexandre Ziegler said, “I’m thrilled to host a soirée to celebrate Befikre in the presence of talented stars, Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor, and congratulate them warmly for their performance. Befikre makes the most of the stunning locales offered by France, highlighting why, year after year, it’s the world’s top tourist destination as well as a favourite for romantic holidays and film shoots. I’m delighted that Befikre was shot almost entirely in France and availed of the French Film Commission’s excellent incentives. I wish to extend invitation to Indian film makers to come and shoot their films in France.”

VP Marketing and Merchandising Yash Raj Films Manan Mehta said, “Our intent is always to provide the best of fashion and cinema to our audience and customers. Both our brands, Befikre and Diva’ni, found Khulke Dulke song as the synergy between two creative products. Both are a perfect match made in Bollywood and as YRF Merchandising, we are proud of that.”

Speaking on the occasion, Ms. Sanya Dhir, Creative Director, Diva’ni said, “It’s surreal how things just come together and make perfect sense. The inspiration came through while we were in Paris shooting for Befikre. The architecture, the mosaic floors, the fish scaled ceilings if on one hand formed the core of the artworks. The international runway set the mood for these silhouettes. We wanted to bring in the opulence, our love for Paris, the rooted Indian craftsmanship sprinkled with carefree joys of love and life. This collection is for the young at heart, bold in mind and for the ones who know how to live life carefree!”
