In the film, directed by Zoya Akhtar, Anil plays Ranveer's onscreen father.

"Anil Kapoor was the coolest guy. He is a living legend. I really bonded with him... which is wonderful. It is so good to see him. He is such a cool guy... like a bro (brother)," the 29-year-old said here in an interview.

"He didn't behave like a senior personality. We used to workout together... go out together, visited places that neither of us had seen earlier. We had loads of fun," he added.

"Dil Dhadakne Do" is about a dysfunctional family's cruise trip. Slated to release on June 5, the film also features Farhan Akhtar, Priyanka Chopra, Anushka Sharma and Shefali Shah.
