Piku Set to Return to Theatres for Its 10th Anniversary: Check Deepika’s Latest Insta Post
Shoojit Sircar’s beloved film Piku, featuring Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and the late Irrfan Khan, is making a theatrical comeback on May 9, 2025, to celebrate its 10th anniversary. This heartwarming slice-of-life narrative about the bond between a father and daughter has continued to resonate with audiences across generations. The re-release was announced by Deepika Padukone on her social media platforms, where she shared a video of Amitabh Bachchan reflecting on the film’s journey and revealing its return to theatres. In her heartfelt caption, Padukone expressed her personal connection to the film, stating, “A film that will always have my heart – PIKU is back in theatres on May 9, 2025, to celebrate its 10th Anniversary! Irrfan, we miss you and think of you often…
”Originally released in 2015, Piku received widespread acclaim for its authentic storytelling and powerful performances. The film beautifully captured the relationship between Piku, a strong and independent architect, and her ageing, hypochondriac father, Bhashkor, portrayed masterfully by Bachchan. Irrfan Khan brought quiet strength to the character of Rana, who unexpectedly becomes a stabilizing force during a road trip that redefines their family dynamics.Directed by Shoojit Sircar and penned by Juhi Chaturvedi, Piku stands out for its depiction of everyday relationships, emotional depth, and the seamless blend of humor and sentiment.

The chemistry among the lead trio added an authenticity that deeply resonated with viewers. This re-release also serves as a tribute to Irrfan Khan, whose passing in 2020 left a significant void in Indian cinema. His role in Piku remains one of his most cherished performances. The film’s music, composed by Anupam Roy, along with its relatable aesthetic, continues to connect with audiences. Its memorable dialogues and moments—particularly those highlighting the nuanced tensions and affections in the father-daughter relationship—remain etched in popular memory. As Piku returns to the big screen, it presents a wonderful opportunity for both new viewers and longtime fans to experience the film again, enriched by nostalgia and remembrance.
