After winning hearts with their engaging act in Dum
Laga Ke Haisha, Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar are all set to reunite on
the big screen for their next movie, Shubh Mangal Saavdhan.
Not only does the rom-com have a hatke title, its
concept is also unconventional and weird. The movie, which is directed by
Prasanna and produce by Aanand L. Rai, tackles the issue of erectile
dysfunction. The movie is a remake of Prasanna's Tamil release Kalyana
Samayal Saadham.
When a famous daily asked Ayushmann about it, he told,
"Let's not call it a remake. It is the rebirth of the same story but the
milieu and humour is different. It's amended to suit Bollywood."
Adds Bhumi, "There is no fun in doing a run-of-the-mill
love story. If films have the ability to change orthodox mindsets, they why not
encourage them. This is wacky. We play a couple who are deeply in love but
there is a twist in the tale. Sex is still a taboo here but it's changing. After
all, this is the land of Kamasutra."
Ayushmann further reveals, "Moreover, I am glad to
feature alongside Bhumi. My wife, Tahira Kashyap saw one of our pictures from a
photoshoot and said, 'It looks like you are hugging me and smiling.' We are
buddies and our chemistry is effortless."
The Aanand L Rai production will be shot across Delhi and
Haridwar.
