ShemarooMe brings World Digital Premiere of ‘Lagan Special’
Mumbai: Indians and their love for weddings are unmatched. With the wedding season yet to arrive, many are yearning for the joy and chaos of wedding celebrations. But worry not, ShemarooMe is all set to fill that void with the World Digital Premiere of the highly anticipated Gujarati family comedy-drama, ‘Lagan Special’. Starring the beloved duo Malhar Thakar and Puja Joshi, alongside Mitra Gadhavi, Lagan Special blends romance, drama, comedy and the delightful chaos of a Gujarati family wedding with an unusual, unexpected twist that will leave everyone exclaiming, ‘Haa Lagan toh saache Special Che!’ Premiering exclusively on ShemarooMe, Lagan Special promises to deliver unlimited entertainment.
Lagan Special follows the journey of Shekhar (Malhar Thakar) and Suman (Puja Joshi) through their arranged marriage. However, their journey encounters a hurdle when Suman discovers that Shekhar doesn’t truly love her. This revelation prompts Suman to call off the ceremony, igniting tensions between their families. Determined to win back her love, Shekhar embarks on an emotional journey to demonstrate his sincere devotion. Will their love story overcome these challenges, or will Shekhar find himself alone in the wedding car? Discover the fate of this couple only on ShemarooMe.
Directed by Rahul Bhole and Vinit Kanojia, and written by Suraj Baraliya, Lagan Special promises a delightful fusion of traditional wedding customs, foot-tapping music, infectious laughter, and heartfelt performances.
Opening up about the theme of Lagan Special and his character, Malhar Thakar said, “When I first heard the script from Suraj Baraliya, I was taken aback by the level of entertainment the movie promised. Amidst the romantic backdrop, the story explores the passion and emotions of the wedding planners, designers and the families striving to perfect the special day for the bride and the groom. Shekhar, the character I portray, embodies the innocence and excitement of a man preparing for marriage, but a confusion between the to be married couple leads to chaos. This sets Shekhar on a daunting task to win back Suman’s trust. Now, as Lagan Special is releasing on ShemarooMe, the audiences will be able to resonate with every emotion Shekhar and Suman experience, drawn in by their undeniable chemistry.”
Puja Joshi, who plays Malhar’s onscreen bride in the film, added, “Marriage is one of the most important days in a girl’s life, and my character, Suman is just like any other girl eagerly awaiting her big day. However, her heart, hopes, and trust are shattered by something she never imagined, even in her worst nightmares. Lagan Special is a project very close to my heart because I lived every moment of Suman’s journey on set. I’m thrilled that the film is finally releasing on ShemarooMe, allowing everyone to be a part of this uniquely extraordinary wedding.”
