Luka Chuppi: First poster of Kartik Aaryan, Kriti Sanon's romantic comedy released; trailer out on 24 January

The first theatrical poster of the upcoming comedy Luka Chuppi was shared by the male lead Kartik Aaryan on Wednesday.

The image features the two protagonists looking into the camera with their fingers on their lips, as if hiding a secret. Kriti Sanon clutches a varmala (garland of flowers) while Aaryan holds a turban. Aparshakti Khurana, Vinay Pathak and Pankaj Tripathi look on from the doorway.

Directed by debutant Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan, Luka Chuppi is primarily based in Mathura with Aaryan playing a reporter. His character is the quintessential good boy whom every girl would want take home. Kriti, on the other hand, plays a local girl who had gone to Delhi for her studies only to return to her hometown.

It was previously reported that '90s chartbuster 'Yeh Khabar Chhapva Do' from Akshay Kumar and Urmila Matondkar's Aflatoon will be rehashed for the film. The song reportedly features Tripathi along with the lead pair and was shot at a Vasai studio in Mumbai.

Luka Chuppi will release in cinemas on 1 March. The trailer will be unveiled on Thursday.
