The cast and makers of one of the most awaited romantic comedy dramas of 2022, come together for a fun dinner !

Sameer Nair of Applause Entertainment along with Tanujj Garg and Swati Iyer of Ellipsis Entertainment were seen with Vidya Balan, Ileana D’cruz and Sendhil Ramamurthy at Hakkasan in Mumbai on Wednesday, 17 November.

Applause Entertainment and Ellipsis Entertainment pulled off the perfect casting coup when they announced that VIDYA BALAN, PRATIK GANDHI, ILEANA D’CRUZ AND SENDHIL RAMAMURTHY will top-line their upcoming, untitled romantic comedy-drama, to be directed by leading ad film-maker, Shirsha Guha Thakurta.

The casting is eclectic and electrifying, with the coming together of the dazzling Vidya Balan and Pratik Gandhi, who shot into overnight stardom with Applause’s very own breakthrough show, Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story. The ravishing Ileana D’Cruz and Hollywood heartthrob Sendhil Ramamurthy also turn up their incredible charm and add to this absolute cracker of a foursome.

The film, a progressive, uninhibited take on modern relationships, marks Applause’s foray into the big screen experience and this second collaboration with Ellipsis (after the Tahira Kashyap Khurrana-directed Sharmajee Ki Beti) promises to be 2022’s ultimate date movie.

The cast of the film, Vidya Balan, Ileana D’cruz and Sendhil Ramamurthy were seen with CEO of Applause Entertainment, Sameer Nair and Tanujj Garg and Swati Iyer of Ellipsis Entertainment.
