New Delhi: The makers have released the motion poster of Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra starrer ‘Jabariya Jodi’.
The movie has been garnering a lot of attention from the audience ever since its announcement for bringing a rustic and unique wedding to the big screens.
Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, Balaji Motion Pictures said, “2 dabang 1 iraada Shaadi mein surprise ka vaada! Save the Date #JabariyaJodi trailer out in 2 days @SidMalhotra @ParineetiChopra @ektaravikapoor @RuchikaaKapoor @ShaaileshRSingh #PrashantSingh @ZeeMusicCompany #JabariyaJodiOn2ndAug”.
‘Jabariya Jodi’ is based on a real-life practice that is prevalent in Bihar and in some parts of Uttar Pradesh. The concept here is that eligible grooms are kidnapped by the bride’s family and are forced to get married in order to avoid paying dowry.
Since marriage is considered to be sacred, it is highly unlikely that the grooms would try to get the marriages annulled. The practice has been around for decades and ‘Jabariya Jodi’ takes an interesting, quirky take on the concept of Pakadwa Shaadi or ‘Jabariya Shaadi’.
The Prashant Singh directorial is shot at real locations in Uttar Pradesh to give the right flavour and will witness Sidharth Malhotra essay a rustic character, for the first time ever with Parineeti Chopra. The duo is reuniting to deliver a one of its kind love story to the audience.
The film also stars the varied powerhouses of talent such as Aparshakti Khurana, Sanjay Mishra, Neeraj Sood, Gopal Dutt, Javed Jaffrey, and Chandan Roy Sanyal. With a stellar cast, the movie is set to take over as a new love saga.
Produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor, and Shailesh R Singh, Jabariya Jodi is a Balaji Telefilms and Karma Media & Entertainment production and releases on August 2. (UNI)
