MUMBAI, India — The makers of the romantic-comedy film “Kya Meri Sonam Gupta Bewafa Hai?” have finally unveiled the film’s trailer.
Featuring lead actors Surbhi Jyoti and Jassie Gill, the movie is late actor Surekha Sikri’s last film and involves her in a pivotal role.
The three-minute-long trailer introduces Sonam Gupta, the “prettiest girl” in Bareilly, who has many men crazy after her. Then, Sintu, a fun guy, falls in love with Sonam, a girl way out of his league.
The story unfolds when Sonam reciprocates his feelings, leaving Sintu confused, and leading to a comic chain of events.
Talking about the trailer, Gill shared his excitement for the upcoming film.
“I remember this incident created so much curiosity amongst the audience, and nobody actually knew what exactly it was. The trailer looks exactly the way I imagined it when the script was narrated to me.”
He also talked about his shooting experience.
“It’s a film based in Uttar Pradesh,” said Gill.
“It was shot in the director’s hometown Badaun. It was different because in ‘Panga,’ I was a Delhi boy. In ‘Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi,’ I played a Sardar. I knew this film would allow me to explore a different culture and local experiences.”
“We shot through September 2019 till the end of October. We shot in real locations, in interiors of the neighboring villages.”
“When people found out that I am shooting, people would be stationed at the entrance of my hotel. My songs are heard widely in U.P. too, which was a pleasant discovery.”
“On-ground challenges of the shooting were many, but we powered through them. A lot of the people in the ensemble were local artists from the region who lent authenticity to the part.”
Actor Jyoti hopes fans would enjoy this “fun and hilarious” trailer.
“I absolutely loved the feel of the trailer, it looks so much fun and hilarious from start to end. When we announced the film, my social media was filled with messages about the trailer. Now since the trailer is out, I hope they enjoy it and send more love (sic),” she said.
Based on an actual incident, the film also stars Vijay Raaz, Brijendra Kala, and Atul Srivastava.
Written and directed by Ssaurabh Tyagi, the film is produced by Dhaval Jayantilal Gada and Akshay Jayantilal Gada.
Director Tyagi also expressed his happiness with the trailer.
“I’m very happy with how the trailer has turned out,” he said.
“We wanted to narrate a story with lots of laughter and fun, taking everyone back to the time when the actual incident happened. The trailer will bring a smile on one’s face.”
The film is set to premiere on the streaming platform ZEE5 on Sept. 10, 2021.
