 As De De Pyaar De marks its 6th anniversary, fans and the film fraternity come together to celebrate one of the most iconic modern rom-coms of Indian cinema. Among the film’s many highlights, Rakul Preet Singh’s portrayal of Ayesha stands tall as a defining moment in her Bollywood journey. Ayesha was introduced as a spirited, independent, and intelligent young woman — someone who challenged societal norms with grace and confidence. Rakul infused the character with warmth, wit, and honesty, making Ayesha more than just a part of a love triangle. She became a voice of the new-age woman, bringing freshness to the narrative and striking a chord with audiences across age groups. This role proved to be a breakthrough for Rakul in the Hindi film industry, establishing her as a performer with both charm and range. The overwhelming appreciation for her performance remains unmatched even today. Now, with De De Pyaar De 2 in the works, the anticipation around Ayesha’s return is sky-high. Rakul Preet Singh recently expressed her excitement about stepping into the character once again:"It’s double dose of masala and double dose of dhamaka. I am excited to be Ayesha (her character) again. It’s great to be working with one of my most favourite teams which include people like Ajay Devgn Sir (her co-star), Luv Ranjan Sir (producer) and the director Anshul Sharma. It is like home coming for me. Because when I did De De Pyaar De  it kick started my journey in Hindi movies. After working in Telugu films this Hindi film gave me that love and so the Part 2 has got me very excited."
