Athiya Shetty and Nawazuddin Siddiqui are coming together for a rom-com
Oops. The cat's out of the bag already.
Mumbai Mirror reported that Athiya Shetty and Nawazuddin Siddiqui have been roped in for a rom-com called Motichoor Chaknachoor.
"My team and I were very impressed with this humorous story of an unlikely couple. There is a lot of situational comedy that plays out between the bride and the groom’s families and Nawaz playing the hero makes it all the more exciting," producer Rajesh Bhatia told the Indian publication.
Reportedly, Athiya will be playing the role of a small town North Indian woman. The actress' character will require her to take workshops to help her nail the dialect and accent. A language coach will be hired hired to work with both the actors.
However, speaking to Indian Express Athiya shared, "I am really sorry. I can’t talk about this film just yet. Once there is more clarity on it, I will be able to talk about it. It is in the pipeline for now. The news was not supposed to come out, but I don’t know how it did. Once there is more progress on this film, I think everybody will know. When everything is locked and confirmed, I’ll definitely talk about it."
The film will reportedly release next year.
