Dimple Kapadia says she agreed to star in Dil Chahta Hai partly because the premise “flattered” her ego, even though she also adds she does not recommend the idea in general. Speaking about the film, she recounts the response to her character’s romantic involvement and describes the experience as entertaining and memorable.
The reports present the same core message: Kapadia frames her decision as influenced by the flattery of romancing a younger man, while also cautioning that it is not something she would advise as a general life approach. NDTV’s write-ups focus on her light, anecdotal delivery and the tone of the remarks, with the recurring line indicating she jokingly cautions against the scenario. Together, the sources emphasize her perspective on the role and how she interprets the character’s relationship dynamic.
While both accounts highlight her comment about ego and age in the storyline, neither outlet adds differing factual details about production, casting context, or direct quotes beyond the central theme of her “yes” to the film.
