Ahead of the worldwide release of "Befikre " on December 9, Yash Raj Films along with Alexandre Ziegler, Ambassador of France to India, co-hosted a soiree to celebrate the film along with leading star-cast Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor. Extensively shot in Paris as well as in Cannes and Picardie, the film is steeped in the Parisian spirit of romance and celebrates sensual, carefree love.

Speaking on the occasion, Sanya Dhir, creative director, DIVA'NI said: "It's surreal how things just come together and make perfect sense. The inspiration came through while we were in Paris shooting for Befikre. We wanted to bring in the opulence, our love for Paris, the rooted Indian craftsmanship sprinkled with carefree joys of love and life. This collection is for the young at heart, bold in mind and for the ones who know how to live life carefree!" (Source: APH Images/Text: IANS)
