The film sees the return of director Shakun Batra who had previously directed the Imran Khan-Kareena Kapoor starrer "Ekk Main Aur Ekk Tu".

It captures the on-and-off bond between Sidharth and Fawad who play brothers, Rajat and Ratna their parents and the overall ups and downs in the Kapoor family, while Alia gets involved with the family through her bond with the brothers at various points of the story.

An interesting part of the trailer, though, is the 'old' Mr. Kapoor -- played by Rishi Kapoor.

About his look, Karan said: "Chintu ji's (Kapoor) age is in the 60s, and he had to portray a role of an 85-90-year old. And obviously there was a need for makeup and we got a team for it, it's usually prosthetic makeup."

"Kapoor and Sons", presented by Fox Star Studios, releases on March 18.
