Dinesh Vijan had planned a gritty thriller starring Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor, with Tushar as the director.
But over time, both Dinesh and Sidharth realized the script might not do well in theaters. So, they decided to drop the project and started exploring new story ideas with Tushar.
After considering several options, they settled on a romantic comedy, which Janhvi liked and quickly joined. The same team is now moving forward with a fresh script.
The film titled “Param Sundari” is expected to be a fun, romantic comedy. The project is in pre production, with shooting set to start in December.
This will be Sidharth’s first film with Maddock Films and a return to the rom-com genre after a decade. For Janhvi Kapoor, it will be her second film with Maddock after “Roohi”.
