‘Param Sundari' Vs ‘Chennai Express': Gen Z Draws Parallels Between Sidharth-Janhvi And SRK-Deepika's Iconic Duo

India.coma day ago
New Delhi: Ever since the release of the latest song Pardesiya from the Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor starrer Param Sundari, netizens have been drawing comparisons to the iconic Bollywood film Chennai Express, which starred Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. Social media is buzzing with excitement ahead of the film's release, with many calling it Gen Z's Chennai Express.
"Sidharth Malhotra & Janhvi Kapoor in *Param Sundari* are low-key channeling SRK-Deepika's Chennai Express* vibes… and now we need a full-blown collab! Who else sees it? #BollywoodDejaVu #ParamSundari"pic.twitter.com/f3IQssbe8w — Bollywood Masti (@bollymastivilla) May 29, 2025
Why Is Param Sundari Being Hailed as Gen Z's Chennai Express?
Social media users have pointed out striking similarities between the plotlines of the two films. Param Sundari is being likened to Chennai Express due to its storyline that revolves around a romance between a North Indian man and a South Indian woman, blended with elements of action and comedy. Even the South Indian aesthetics—think bindi and gajra—have triggered waves of nostalgia among fans.
The introductory poster of the film has also drawn comparisons to Chennai Express, adding fuel to the ongoing discussion.
In the teaser released earlier, a group of villagers from Janhvi's side can be seen chasing someone with axes and weapons—an action sequence that instantly reminded fans of a similar moment in Chennai Express.
One user commented, 'Looks like a Gen Z Chennai Express.'
Another said, 'Chennai Express? Nevertheless, Sid looks so good.'
A third wrote, 'Why does Janhvi's look remind me of Deepika from Chennai Express?!?'
A fourth wondered, 'Why does it feel like Chennai Express 2?'
A curious fan even asked, 'Isme Lungi Dance 2.0 hoga kya?'
'It's giving Chennai Express but with new actors,' a fifth user said.
Some even demanded a crossover: 'Sidharth Malhotra & Janhvi Kapoor in Param Sundari are low-key channeling SRK-Deepika's Chennai Express vibes… and now we need a full-blown collab.'
Pardesiya Song
The track Pardesiya from Param Sundari is winning over fans, thanks to the sizzling chemistry between Sidharth and Janhvi Kapoor and the soulful voice of Sonu Nigam. The film, which was earlier set to release on July 25, will now hit theatres on August 29.
Param Sundari is directed by Tushar Jalota.

Not Anil Kapoor, this superstar was first choice for Mr. India, rejected it due to..., he is...

Sometimes, iconic roles in cinema almost end up in someone else's hands and the story behind one such Bollywood classic is just as fascinating as the film itself. It's hard to imagine anyone other than Anil Kapoor playing the beloved character of Mr. India, but surprisingly, he wasn't the first choice for the role. The film, which went on to become a cult classic, could have looked very different if the original plan had worked out. Who is this superstar? Before Anil Kapoor was cast as the invisible hero, the makers of Mr. India had approached none other than Amitabh Bachchan for the lead role. At the time, Bachchan was already a megastar with a towering presence in the industry. The script was offered to him, but due to scheduling issue or simply a creative decision, the role slipped from his hands and it landed with Anil Kapoor, changing the course of his career. It was also said that during that time, Big B was trying to involved in political campaigns and that's why he was refusing projects at that time. What was the storyline? Released in 1987 and directed by Shekhar Kapur, Mr. India became one of the most loved science fiction films in Indian cinema. The film tells the story of a kind-hearted man who discovers a gadget that makes him invisible. He uses this power to fight evil and protect orphans, becoming a symbol of hope and justice. What made the film stand out wasn't just the fantasy element but also its emotional depth, memorable characters, and powerful performances. Anil Kapoor's portrayal of Arun, the invisible hero, won hearts across the country. His chemistry with Late Sridevi, who played the bold and spirited journalist Seema, was another highlight. Sridevi's performance, especially in the iconic 'Hawa Hawai' song, remains unforgettable. And of course, no mention of Mr. India is complete without the villain, Mogambo, played brilliantly by Late Amrish Puri. His line 'Mogambo khush hua' became one of the most famous dialogues in Bollywood history. More about Mr India Mr. India was major box office success and is now considered a cult classic in Indian cinema. Made on a modest budget of Rs 3 crore for its time, the film went on to become the second highest-grossing Hindi film of 1987, earning approximately Rs 10 crore at the Indian box office, a huge number in that era, which has IMDb rating of 7.8.

When Dhanush Recalled Falling For Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth: 'She's 100 Times Simpler Than Her Father'

Last Updated: Before their divorce, Dhanush praised Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth, saying she's "100 times simpler than her father" Rajinikanth in a resurfaced interview. While Dhanush is currently sparking dating rumours with Mrunal Thakur, a resurfaced interview has reminded fans of the actor's heartfelt praise for his former wife, Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth. The Raayan actor and Aishwaryaa, daughter of superstar Rajinikanth, were married for 18 years before announcing their separation in 2022. They share two sons – Yatra and Linga. Long before their relationship ended, Dhanush had spoken fondly about Aishwaryaa in multiple interviews. One such conversation has now gone viral again, where he compared her to her legendary father. In an old interview with The Times of India, Dhanush opened up about what attracted him to Aishwaryaa when they first met. The actor, who tied the knot with her in an arranged setup back in 2004, clarified that it wasn't her lineage that caught his attention, but her personality. 'I don't see her like that," Dhanush said, when asked if her being Rajinikanth's daughter played a role. 'I like her simplicity. If you think her father is simple, meet Aishwarya. She is 100 times simpler than her father. Aishwaryaa treats everybody as an equal and can be friends with anybody. I like the fact that she is bringing up our sons extremely well." Dhanush and Aishwaryaa had their first child, Yatra, in 2006, followed by their second son, Linga, in 2010. Despite being one of the most powerful couples in South Indian cinema, they largely kept their private life away from the spotlight. Over the years, Dhanush also shared a close bond with his father-in-law, Rajinikanth, who had spoken publicly about his admiration for Dhanush's talent and work ethic. While fans were heartbroken to learn about their separation in 2022, the couple filed for divorce officially in April 2024 and were legally granted separation in November that year.
