Dil Dhadakne Do has already hit a home run, even prior to its trailer launch. Why? The promotional strategies, especially the motion posters have already caught everyone's attention. Slick and urban, Zoya Akhtar's DDD looks be another out and out commercial entertainer of sorts. 

An ensemble film, DDD boasts of a heavyweight cast with names like Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra, Farhan Akhtar and Anushka Sharma. While the trailer will be officially unveiled on Wednesday evening, here's a look at the roles each actor will play in Dil Dhadakne Do.

The stern and cool father

Anil Kapoor as Mr Mehra has already received immense appreciation for his character's cool look. Anil sports salt and pepper hair and this could possibly one of the first times that an actor has attempted to try out this look. Anil Kapoor will be seen playing the strict yet cool father. While Mr Mehra will be otherwise friendly with his children and their partners, he will not understand or support the dreams of his son, played by Ranveer Singh. There will be an indirect conflict between the father and the son in the film. 

In pursuit of his dreams

Ranveer plays Kabir Mehra, the rich, spoilt brat who is flamboyant and suave at the same time. Flirty and handsome, Kabir is a ladies man. But Kabir has a dream- he loves planes and wants to become a pilot. There's just one major obstacle in his way- his father. His father wants him to run the family business while he wants to break free. Will he be able to? 

The couple in dilemma

Priyanka Chopra will be playing the role of an established entrepreneur, who's married to Rahul Bose. The couple, like all other couples, have their differences and that's what forms the basis of Priyanka's plotline. Though the couple are otherwise seen flirting with each other, there are inner turnmoils that they goe through.

The third angle

When you have a host of biggies pairing up for an ensemble, there's bound to be an interesting love triangle. While PeeCee and Rahul work through their stormy marriage, it's Farhan who forms the third angle to their love story. Or should we say, the love story that existed! A wounded PC finds solace in Farhan and romance ensues.

Out of the cage

While everyone in the Mehra family are dealing with their own set of problems and issues, Ranveer meets Anushka on the cruise. Anushka's Farah Ali is a dancer on the cruise and is a free bird, unlike Kabir. She's left her home to follow her dreams of becoming a dancer. While Kabir wants to break out of the cage he is boxed in, he finds Farah's life interesting and inspiring. Why? Because she lives her life on her own terms, is driven by her passion and ideals and isn't imprisoned like him. Kabir wants to lead a life like Farah's and falls in love with her. 

The cutest member in the Mehra family

And that would be Pluto Mehra, the adorable pet boxer of the Mehra family. With the family album complete with Pluto, it will be the boxer who will be witness to everything that goes on in the dysfunctional Mehra family, much before we see them on screen!
