Sources close to the development reveal that this untitled film is an original script and promises to be a hilarious entertainer. “Much like all David Dhawan comedies, this one is also a love triangle where the humor stems from confusion in the leading man’s life,” shared a source.
Pinkvilla reports that Sreeleela has been cast to play Varun Dhawan’s love interest, marking her Hindi film debut. “David has written a high-on-entertainment track to launch Sreeleela in Hindi markets,” the source added. The film aims to be a “pakka-commercial entertainer,” which Sreeleela believes is the perfect launch pad for her in Bollywood.
The comic caper will also see Mrunal Thakur sharing screen space with Varun Dhawan. “Varun will be romancing both Mrunal and Sreeleela in the film. It’s a fun entertainer, on the lines of cinema that David Dhawan is known for. Varun also returns to his home turf. The makers have gone all out to pull off a fresh-casting coup bringing in Mrunal and Sreeleela on board alongside Varun,” the source elaborated.
Before stepping into this comedy, Varun Dhawan will be seen in “Baby John” and “Sunny Sansakari Ki Meenakumari.” Stay tuned to The Cults Bay for more updates on this exciting new project.
