Mumbai Mirror, “Yes, Diljit and Yami have given their nod to the film. It’s a fresh pairing and we are excited because both are competent actors with impeccable comic timing. It is a sensible comedy and revolves around a couple.” Taurani also stated that they are scouting for a new face who will play a crucial role in the film.

Meanwhile, Diljit will be next seen in Dinesh Vijan’s quirky cop comedy
Arjun Patiala alongside Kriti Sanon and Varun Sharma. He will also be seen sharing screen space with Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Kiara Advani in first-timer Raj Mehta’s

Uri: The Surgical Strike , is prepping for Amar Kaushik’s
