As it's something that has taken shape over the years from my conversations with my daughter. It's a true labor of love with some amazing young actors, and great energy. And there is great music by Amit Trivedi with the help of some amazing collaborators like my DP Sylvester and my PD Shazia plus everyone else.”
He also added, “It's my going back to my constant exploration of relationships vis a vis the generation which actually defines us and is our future. It's about love and all kinds of prejudices that plague it. I feel great to move to the next phase of my life with this film."
The romantic musical, directed by Anurag, also stars Karan Mehta in the lead role. It will be released in theatres on February 3, 2023, by Good Bad Films and Zee Studios.
The song Almost Pyaar by DJ Mohabbat is billed as an ode to modern love. It examines modern-day young relationships. And there is the exploration in a world riddled with prejudices and predatory behavior.
