According to Times of India, Bhumi will essay the role of a Physical Education teacher while Rajkummar will play a solo male cop in a women’s police station. The report also quotes Bhumi, “Badhaai Ho is one of my favourite films in recent times, and it is really exciting to take this franchise forward. For me, the script is one of the best that I have ever come across, and I immediately wanted to do this film. My character again is strong, independent and author-backed, and it gives me a lot of scope to bring a very different and cool character to life. This time, too, the film will say something extremely relevant and relatable, but in a hilarious manner. I’m also excited to share screen space with Raj for the first time.” Meanwhile, Rao will be next seen in Hansal Mehta’s family drama _Chhalaang_ alongside Nushrat Bharucha. He will also also star in an adaptation of Arvind Adiga’s Man Booker Prize-winning novel The White Tiger. He is also a part of anurag Basu’s anthology _Ludo_ , which is set to hit the silver screen on 24 April. Rao also shared his first look from the film early this year. A horror comedy, Roohi Afzana, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor alongside Rao and Varun Sharma, will be out on 5 June.
