The film revolves around relationships. It narrates a story of a dysfunctional Punjabi family and how they discover love and friendship during a cruise across the Mediterranean.

Featuring Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Farhan Akhtar, Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma in key roles, 'Dil Dhadakne Do' explores the nuances of relationships and tries to find the bond which often fades away due to professional calls. The film will hit the screens on June 5.
