Director-Producer Duo Abhishek Kapoor and Pragyaa Kapoor Celebrate 7 Years of Kedarnath: The love that it continues to receive today is immeasurable

It’s been 7 years since the deeply-moving film, Kedarnath, was released. Starring the late Sushant Singh Rajput and Sara Ali Khan, Kedarnath is an out-of-the-ordinary film directed by Abhishek Kapoor, and produced by Pragyaa Kapoor and Ronnie Screwvala. The director-producer duo reflected on the journey that turned the romantic drama into a lasting favourite.

Released in 2018, Kedarnath tells a love story between a Muslim porter and a Hindu pilgrim, set against the backdrop of the 2013 Uttarakhand floods. The film marked Sara Ali Khan’s debut and showcased an impressive performance by Sushant Singh Rajput.

Celebrating 7 years of Kedarnath, Abhishek Kapoor says, “Kedarnath has always been a very dear creation of mine. It was more than a film; it was a piece of my heart that gave me so much in return. The love that it continues to receive today, whether because of its story, songs or Sushant Singh Rajput and Sara Ali Khan’s dedication – is immeasurable, and I’ll always be glad to have brought this film to life!”

Pragyaa Kapoor says, “Kedarnath has always been a fulfilling journey. Each time I reflect on it, I’m taken back to the mountains and the memories, and the film has given us something much greater in return: unconditional love! Seven years later, the love for Kedarnath still feels very personal, and I believe that is the film’s greatest achievement!”

Kedarnath featured all the elements of being a memorable film! From an inter-faith love story, a real-life tragedy, performances with a striking mix of restraint and aggression as required, and the unforgettable songs – whether Namo Namo, Sweetheart, Qaafirana or Jaan Nisar – made Kedarnath a film that it is today.
