The trailer of Janhit Mein Jaari has received a lot of props because of the film's fresh concept. Actress Nushrratt Bharuccha plays a condom seller and the film aims at raising the awareness of population control.
The film will see Anud Singh Dhaka play Bharuccha's character's love interest, Manorajan.
Talking about casting the actor, writer and producer Raaj Shaandilyaa said, “While scouting for someone opposite Nushrratt, we wanted a new face who is innocently mischievous and who we all can love. Someone who can stand tall and be supportive of Nushrratt’s character and do right by her. We saw his clips and we trusted our gut that he would do justice to the role of Manorajan.”
Now that the film is set to be released, Shaandilyaa feels Dhaka has done justice to the role. “He has held his own against a talented powerhouse like Nushrratt. He comes across as so natural and effortless that he reminds me of the young Ranveer Singh, Ayushmann Khurrana and Sushant Singh Rajput. He has the same drive to perform and hunger to excel in that performance. It's actors like him that make one believe in raw, true and honest talent.”
Directed by Jai Basantu Singh, Janhit Mein Jaari is set to be released on 10 June.
