Nushrat Bharucha drops some interesting details about Dream Girl

Nushrat Bharucha needs no introduction! She became a household name after the huge success of such films as Pyaar Ka Punchnama (2011), Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (2015) and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018). After staying away from the screen for more than a year, Bharucha is now gearing up for the release of her next film Dream Girl where she is paired opposite Ayushmann Khurrana.

The hugely anticipated film is directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa and is scheduled to hit the marquee on 13th September, 2019. The audience has a lot of expectations from the film because Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrat Bharucha both have delivered some back-to-back hits in the past.


Talking about her role in Dream Girl, Nushrat says, “Though he (Ayushmann Khurrana) is everybody’s dream girl in the film, I am his. So, the whole story is about him trying to win me over and be with me while other people are trying to get to him.”

When asked about her experience of working with Ayushmann Khurrana for the first time, the actress says, “Oh, amazing! Even before both his films (Andhadhun and Badhaai Ho) came out, Dream Girl was locked. I had seen his early works and after watching his debut, Vicky Donor (2012), I was amazed. He is just so natural and endearing without doing much on screen. Somehow, he does it with every character and it is refreshing to watch him. So, I wanted to work with him even before these two movies came out. He is extremely funny and is always up to something.”

Dream Girl revolves around a small-town man Lokesh Bisht, who gets a job at a female friendship call centre. He changes his name to Pooja and answers calls in a female voice. And soon, a number of men become besotted with Pooja and want to get her anyhow. What happens next forms the crux of the story.

The film releases on 13th September, 2019.

'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' sequel on Netflix: David Fincher helms film written by Quentin Tarantino starring Brad Pitt

David Fincher is set to direct a sequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, with Quentin Tarantino penning the script for the follow-up to his Academy Award-winning film. The project, confirmed by Variety, does not yet have an official title but is being developed at Netflix, where Fincher holds a first-look deal. Brad Pitt will reprise his role as Cliff Booth, the stuntman with a dark past.

The film marks a particularly unique collaboration, not only due to one renowned filmmaker directing a sequel to another’s work but also because of its transition from theatrical release to a streaming platform. The original Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was released in 2019 by Sony Pictures, but Tarantino had negotiated a deal that would grant him ownership of the film’s underlying rights after a set period. The fact that this sequel is being developed under Fincher’s Netflix agreement suggests that Tarantino may already hold the sequel rights privately.
