Love has no bars;‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ Proves It Right Away!

Who says love can only brew between perfect and made-for-each-other types couple? ‘Love is truly unbarred and comes in all sizes’. If this sounds quite skeptical, the forthcoming ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ is a must watch.

DUM LAGA KE HAISHAYash Raj Films legacy is all set to treat not only the dreamers of romanticism, but also the fun-loving maniacs. Along with the pink shade of love, this upcoming directorial venture of Sharat Kataria drives its viewers through a completely bizarre, crazy and multi-shaded ride as the plot unwraps.

Ayushmann Khurana starrer, the movie also marks acting debut of Bhumi Pednekar, both playing the lead pair of the film. The movie is set against the backdrop of 90`s era, squarely picturing the perfect ambience of that time; trailer says it all. The movie also includes a cameo made by Kumar Sanu and its music album comprises songs sung by him and Sadhana Sargam, thus reviving the melodious beats of two decades back.

 The story circulates around the entwined lives of loser Prem and his overweight, plump wife Sandhya who is repeatedly  slapped with criticism and inferiority from her husband due to her physical appearance. Soon, the movie takes a tragic turn and a watershed moment arrives when Prem comes to grip, with the fact that he needs to lift and carry his oversize wife on his back for a town championship.

bhumi-pednekarApart from the eccentric storyline, the film owns a box full of notable facts; for instance, Parineeti Chopra recently said that the film is special to her as it is made by two important persons in her life. Listing them, one is the director who has turned producer for this film, Maneesh Sharma, who launched Parineeti in one of his films under the YRF banner. The second name is surely going to raise eyebrows as it is none other than the leading lady of the film, Bhumi Pednekar, who originally works in the casting team of YRF and was the first to audition Parineeti and select her.

Even Parineeti was a part of the marketing division of YRF and like Bhumi, was chosen to act in films due to her caliber. Parineeti feels that they both closely connect due to their similar path and thus is excited about the film`s release. Parineeti expressed her gladness by tweeting: “The girl who auditioned me, the guy who selected me!! This one is special DumLagaKeHaisha – starring Bhumi, produced by Maneesh Sharma!!” 

Secondly, Bhumi has been asked by the YRF team to keep low profile before the film`s release. They want to perpetuate the curiosity surrounding Bhumi due to her unusual journey that accounts her start from being a behind-the-scenes artist to flaunting off as lead heroine today on the silver screen.

A spokesperson said, “Bhumi has an endearing personal journey and story. She was assisting Shanoo, the casting director. Everyone felt her story was better told once every one had seen it on the celluloid.”

‘DUM LAGA KE HAISHA’The next fact is that this is a first Bollywood movie to be entirely shot in temple towns- Haridwar and Hrishikesh. As told by an informer of TOI,” Dum Laga Ke Haisha is a coming of age story and the setting of this story in Haridwar-Hrishikesh adds a more rooted emotion to the narrative.” Maneesh Sharma is always precise about locations and thinks that set-up plays foremost role in the story; then be it New Delhi in Band Baja Baraat or Jaipur in Shuddha Desi Romance.

Summarizing the concept, producer Maneesh Sharma said in an interview to PTI, “The biggest strength of ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ is that it has been made with a lot of honesty. It is a charming love story of this mismatched couple — a loser and his over-sized wife. The story has its heart and soul in the right place.” 

It is really going to be exciting to watch if this freshly paired new duo is able to set the screen on fire with their wacky chemistry as they come to meet us on 27th February, 2015.
