Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh pair up

Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh have joined hands to headline an upcoming Hindi film which is yet to be titled. To be produced by T-Series Films, Emmay Entertainment and JA Entertainment, the movie is being touted as a family dramedy, set to hit the shooting floor in a couple of weeks from now.

Kaashvie Nair, who has earlier assisted filmmaker Nikkhil Advani on Patiala House (2011) and D-Day (2013) and co-directed the critically acclaimed TV series POW: Bandi Yuddh Ke, will be making her directorial debut with the forthcoming film.

Sharing some details on his next production venture, producer Nikkhil Advani said in a statement, “It is a coming-of-age, cross-border love story, beautifully written by Anuja Chauhan, Amitosh Nagpal and Kaashvie. It will be shot extensively in Punjab and Los Angeles and will feature Arjun and Rakul in never-seen-before avatars. We will be locking the title and the release date soon.”

Co-producer Bhushan Kumar, who has collaborated with Nikkhil Advani on several successful films in the recent past, goes on to add, “It sums up our everyday experiences and relationships with our families. The audiences will definitely enjoy it.”

Arjun Kapoor informs that when he heard the script, he knew the film had its heart in the right place. “I have grown up in a joint family so I understood that it’s the biggest pillar of love, strength and support. That’s the essence of our film, which has its heart in the right place. I’m having a blast even during the prep.”

Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh will be sharing the screen space together for the first time. The 34-year-old actor says that he is excited to be working with the actress after collaborating with her during workshops. “She is a beautiful, instinctive and generous co-star,” adds Kapoor.
