Govinda Mera Naam is being written and directed Shashank Khaitan, who has given hit movies such as Badrinath Ki Dulhania and Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania. Khaitan is also co-producing the film, along with Karan Johar, Hiroo Johar and Apoorva Mehta.

The posters see the actors sporting retro looks, increasing the speculation about the story. According to Hindustan Times, the film appears to be a revamped version of Khaitan’s film Mr Lele, which was shelved last year.

The film sees Kaushal reunite with Advani after the 2018 film Lust Stories, where they had played a newly married couple. The film also marks the first time Pednekar and Kaushal will be starring opposite each other.

Kaushal will also be seen in Aditya Dhar’s next film, where he will be in the role of the Mahabharata character Ashwatthama, as well in Meghna Gulzar’s biopic on Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw.

Meanwhile, Pednekar will next be seen in the Akshay Kumar starrer Raksha Bandhan while Advani is set to star opposite Varun Dhawan in Jug Jug Jeeyo.
