Talking about the film Imtiaz Ali had said, “‘Tum mere paas hote ho goya, Jab koi doosra nahin hota’
(‘You are with me, however,
When there is no one else’)
-Momin
Can love really be lost? Can home be taken away from someone’s heart? This film has a big heart. It has a large canvas yet is very personal. It is a story of a boy and a girl, but also a country.”
Earlier, reports had suggested that the story is set in the 1940s, against the backdrop of India’s partition.
Meanwhile, Diljit Dosanjh was most recently seen in Border 2, whereas Vedang Raina’s last film was Jigra in 2024. Sharvari, on the other hand, was previously seen in Munjya, and she is also gearing up for Yash Raj Films’ next production, Alpha.
