In a separate post, Ida shared photographs from the special moment, including a picture of Krish getting down on one knee as he asked her to marry him. The couple appeared overjoyed as Ida accepted the proposal.
Like her father, Ida has pursued a career in filmmaking. She has directed projects including Maya, Lift, and Thai Massage, establishing her own presence in the industry.
Meanwhile, Imtiaz Ali is currently receiving appreciation for his latest film, Main Vaapas Aaunga. The period drama stars Diljit Dosanjh, Naseeruddin Shah, Sharvari, and Vedang Raina in key roles.
Set against the backdrop of Partition and family history, the film centres on 95-year-old Ishar Singh Grewal, played by Naseeruddin Shah. After suffering a stroke while trying to travel to Sargodha in present-day Pakistan, he begins reliving memories from his past. His grandson Nirvair, portrayed by Diljit Dosanjh, returns from England in search of answers, uncovering long-hidden family secrets along the way.
