‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ follows the love story of Rani (played by Alia) and Rocky (Ranveer Singh) who belong to contrasting backgrounds and cultures.
Writer Ishita Moitra believes the film is all about "falling in love with the differences" between people. "It is about celebrating your differences, it's a shout-out to inclusivity. There are many reasons why we hate someone or judge others, but it's about rising above those differences, accepting each other, and living with love. We were playing with the same stereotypes. In the film, no one is perfect. Like, this (culture) is a stereotype but when you invert it, you dig deep, you fall in love with the differences... Eventually, they stand for each other, they rise above those (things). Everybody understands there's no perfect community, perfect person or perfect love. You have to first make the stereotypes to break them," Moitra, also belongs to a Bengali household, told PTI in an interview.
