Eros joins hands with Aanand L Rai to co-produce ‘Happy Bhaag Jayegi’
MUMBAI: Post their successful innings with Raanjhanaa and Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Eros International Media has teamed up with Aanand L. Rai’s Colour Yellow Productions yet again for their next film Happy Bhaag Jayegi starring Abhay Deol and Diana Penty.
The cross-border romantic comedy is written and directed by Mudassar Aziz.
Happy Bhaag Jayegi keeps to Rai’s trend of unusual pairing even as a producer and will see the Deol and Penty being paired opposite each other for the first time. Happy Bhaag Jayegi also stars Ali Fazal, Jimmy Shergill, Piyush Mishra, Kanwaljit Singh and Momal Sheikh. The film is currently on floor in Amritsar.
Speaking on the new venture, producer Krishika Lulla said, “With Happy Bhaag Jayegi, we want to continue backing fresh new talent, strong appealing scripts and unique stories.”
Rai added, “I believe the audience always likes to see something unusual and different on screen. Other than the story, perhaps the one thing that catches everyone’s attention is the actors featuring in the project. Both Abhay and Diana are talented actors and they are apt for the roles that they will be playing in Happy Bhaag Jayegi.”
A comic tale of errors, the film revolves around a young runaway bride who crosses over the border to land up in Pakistan and the following eventful series of crazy episodes.
