Jimmy Sheirgill on starring in P se Pyaar F se Farraar: I have always supported socially relevant films

Jimmy Sheirgill is surely one of the most underrated actors of Bollywood. He has been a part of many films where he has impressed us with his performance. He will next be seen on the big screen in a film titled P se Pyaar F se Farraar which is based on honour killings in India.

Recently while talking about starring in the film, Jimmy said, “I have always supported these kinds of socially relevant films even though the film was made in a restricted budget I just felt that I should support it since I always try and support socially relevant subject, which is why I ended up doing it.”


P se Pyaar F se Farraar is helmed by director Manoj Tiwari. While talking about his movie, Tiwari said, "Nothing can be more credible and entertaining than reality. Social Issue-based cinema need not be boring and preachy, it can be thrilling and exciting too."

While Jimmy Shergill, Kumud Mishra, Girish Kulkarni, and Sanjay Mishra play pivotal roles in the film, it stars new faces as the leads. Talking about it, Tiwari said, "To tell a story based on true incidents with credibility and effectiveness I wanted people to believe and relate to the characters and situations of my film. That’s why I opted mainly for fresh faces in the cast and location for this film. Even the known faces in the star cast are meant to go against their established images and you will never feel for a moment that you are watching Jimmy Shergill, Kumud Mishra, Girish Kulkarni, and Sanjay Mishra in the film, you will feel that you are watching real and relatable characters from the western Uttar Pradesh.”

The trailer of the film was released a few days ago and the movie is slated to release on 18th October 2019.
