Mumbai: Actors Kriti Sanon and Diljit Dosanjh
are set to star in filmmaker Dinesh Vijan's next production,
"Arjun Patiala".
In the film, to be made under the banner of Maddock
films, Kriti plays a journalist while Diljit is in the titular
role as the quirky, small town guy.
'Arjun Patiala' is a character-driven comedy with a
touch of magic realism and music.
"The Hindi film audience has already experienced
Diljit's intensity, now it's time to laugh with him. Kriti is
moving from Bareilly to Patiala to deliver another small town
surprise and this time she is holding a pen," Dinesh said in a
statement.
Kriti, who featured in Dinesh's directorial debut
"Raabta", is excited to be back with the team.
"I love watching good comedies and while shooting for
Bareilly Ki Barfi I realised that I enjoyed being a part of
this world too. I am really looking forward to start shoot for
Arjun Patiala with Diljit who I feel is extremely talented and
I am also thrilled to be back with the Maddock team," Kriti
said.
Dinesh has earlier produced films like Imtiaz Ali's
"Love Aaj Kal", Homi Adajania's "Cocktail", Sriram Raghavan's
"Badlapur" and Saket Chaudhary's "Hindi Medium". The film will
start shooting from February 2018 in Punjab.
