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.
