In a recent conversation with India Today, Neetu Kapoor opened up about how she had planned a dance performance to surprise her bahu, Alia Bhatt at her wedding. She mentioned that it was her idea to do a surprise performance on Punjabi folk dance called ‘giddha’ and then add some more songs to it. Neetu can be quoted as saying:
“The wedding dance was all my idea, actually.” Neetu admitted that even though they did not have much time to prepare, they decided to pull this off with only a day’s practice. “I told everyone we should do something, even though the time is less. I had to do dancing, I told them. So we practiced whatever we could for a day. We even planned, me and Reema. We planned to do gidda, which is like a Punjabi traditional dance. We tried something new. We did gidda, then new songs and then Ranbir joined them. It was really fun.”
In the same interview, the doting mother-in-law revealed that she was indeed successful in surprising Alia Bhatt with her dance performance, as Alia had no idea there would be a dance performance. Neetu said that if she had more time on her hand, she would have made sure that everyone danced on her son, Ranbir Kapoor’s big day. In her words:
“Even Alia was surprised because she did not know we were going to do this. It was a surprise for her. It was very nice. If we had more time, I would have made sure everyone was there and everyone danced.”
