Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor are set to star opposite each other for the first time in Maddock Films’s upcoming romance drama Param Sundari, the production company announced on Tuesday.
“North ka swag, South ki grace – two worlds collide and sparks fly,” wrote the makers on social media, sharing a motion poster of the film presented by Dinesh Vijan, known for bankrolling movies like Bhediya (2022), Zara Hatke Zara Bachke (2023), Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya (2024), Munjya (2024) and Stree 2 (2024).
While Sidharth Malhotra plays a North Indian boy Param, Janhvi Kapoor portrays Sundari, a girl from down south. Directed by Tushar Jalota, the film will explore their love story.
Param Sundari is slated to hit theatres on July 25 next year.
On the work front, Sidharth last appeared in Arun Katyal’s action thriller Yodha. Produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Shashank Khaitan, Yodha also features Disha Patani and Raashii Khanna in key roles.
Janhvi last appeared in the Jr. NTR-led actioner Devara: Part 1. The 27-year-old actress is currently working on Shashank Khaitan’s upcoming romcom Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, which will feature her opposite Varun Dhawan. The film is expected to hit theatres next year.
