A special screening of the new film Daadi Ki Shaadi recently turned into an impromptu concert, with Aamir Khan stealing the spotlight. A series of viral clips from the event show Aamir jamming with Kapil Sharma and actress Sadia Khateeb, much to the delight of the cast and fans online.
The highlight of the evening was Aamir revisiting his iconic 1998 track “Aati Kya Khandala” from Ghulam. Kapil Sharma also showcased his vocal chops, crooning classics like “Roop Tera Mastana” and “Aaj Jaane Ki Zidh Na Karo” while the audience, including Neetu Kapoor, cheered him on.
Aamir Khan’s Verdict on Daadi Ki Shaadi
Beyond the music, Aamir had high praise for the film and specifically mentioned Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, who makes her acting debut in the project. In a playful moment with the paparazzi, Aamir quipped:
“Riddhima ki pehle film hai. Bahot badhiya kaam kiya hai. Ranbir se better kiya hai.” (It’s Riddhima’s first film. She’s done great work—even better than Ranbir!)

Early Reviews: A Mixed Bag
Critics have offered a variety of perspectives on the film’s “subversive” take on family values:
-
The Positive: Many praised Neetu Kapoor’s radiant performance and Kapil Sharma’s trademark improvisational wit. The film is noted for being a light-hearted summer entertainer that avoids becoming a heavy melodrama.
-
The Critique: Some reviewers felt the 150-minute runtime was overextended, describing it as an “outdated family drama” that relies on tropes from decades ago. There was also mention of noticeable AI-style facial smoothing in some of the visuals.
Whether it’s for the “better than Ranbir” performance or the viral jamming sessions, Daadi Ki Shaadi is certainly making noise at the box office this weekend.
