The upcoming Bollywood film Jawaani Jaaneman has missed its date with theatres a number of times in the past few months. Earlier slated to hit the marquee on 29th November, 2019, the movie was pushed to February 7, 2020. Surprisingly, the release date of the film has once again been changed. Now instead of 7th February, it will arrive in cinemas on 31st January, 2020.
Jawaani Jaaneman stars seasoned actors Saif Ali Khan and Tabu in lead roles. The film marks their reunion after a massive gap of two decades as the duo was last seen together in filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya’s multi-starrer family drama Hum Saath Saath Hain (1999). However, the two actors were not romantically paired opposite each other in the film.
Besides Khan and Tabu, Jawaani Jaaneman also stars Alaia Furniturewala. It marks her debut on the big screen. For the uninitiated, Alaia is the daughter of former model and actress Pooja Bedi, and is already quite popular because of her sizzling images that keep sending the internet into a tizzy every now and then.
Along with announcing the new release date, the makers also rolled out the teaser poster of the film. Jawaani Jaaneman tells the story of a father-daughter duo. Saif Ali Khan is playing Alaia Furniturewala’s father in the movie, while Tabu will be seen as his ex-girlfriend.
Talking about what led her to sign Jawaani Jaaneman, Tabu had earlier said, "I have been playing dark roles lately, and the character I play in Jawaani Jaaneman is absolutely refreshing. I loved the script when I read it and I definitely wanted to do this at the first go.”
Directed by Nitin Kakkar, Jawaani Jaaneman is co-produced by Saif Ali Khan in association with Pooja Entertainment.
