Comedy is not easy: Kriti Sanon
Maddock films is bringing actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh back in uniform this time with Kriti and actor Varun Sharma for a laugh riot.
" Arjun Patiala was such an exciting journey. Comedy is not an easy genre and we have added a twist to it. Diljit and Varun have a great comic timing and it was a constant laugh riot on the set " Kriti said in a statement.
Dinesh Vijan who is producing the film with Bhushan Kumar said: "Diljit will be seen in the uniform but very different from his avatar in his first Hindi film outing Udta Punjab .
"This police wallah is a laugh a minute character with swag."
Diljit said: " Arjun Patiala is very quirky. It s a film that has action romance and comedy but with a spin on it. It was a blast shooting it and I hope audiences love it as much."
Varun will be seen as a police official with a sarcastic tongue and an arrogant stride who goes by the name of Onida Singh.
"I m very excited to see the audience s reactions as it s a very special. They ve given me so much love and appreciation I want to make sure they have a great time at the theatre " he said.
The trio has a baddie to contend with as Zeeshan Ayyub steps out of his good friend avatar to roam the campus his hair tied up in a patka piling up the corpses without batting an eyelid. His character is called School pronounced in the Punjabi way as Sakool.
"The Rohit Jugraj-directed laugh riot offers plenty of action and dollops of bubble-gum romance. We believe in doing something different every time and since we have never attempted an out-and-out comedy before we decided to experiment with one which is more situational than slapstick.
"If this film works we would be happy to spin a franchise with (characters) Arjun Onida and Ritu returning as the principal players. We already have an idea for a part 2 and like Golmaal and Fukrey Arjun will be back with a Patiala peg every couple of years " Vijan said.
The film is scheduled to hit the theatres on September 14.
