Shaadi.com ties knot for ‘2 States’
MUMBAI: Shaadi.com is all set to be associated with 2 States, the forthcoming movie co-produced by Dharma Productions and Sajid Nadiadwala. The matrimonial site has become the official matrimonial partner for the movie. The movie is based on the book ‘2 States’ authored by Chetan Bhagat.
Commenting on the association, Shaadi.com COO Gourav Rakshit said, “For over 17 years, we at Shaadi.com have been helping people create their own love story, so it is only natural for us to be associated with a beautiful love story like 2 States. We are delighted about this relationship with Dharma Productions and we wish them great success with this movie.”
The film revolves around a Punjabi boy (Arjun Kapoor), who falls in love with a Tamil girl (Alia Bhatt) and all the hardships they go through because of the cultural differences between the two families. The film is distributed by UTV Motion Pictures and scheduled to release on 18 April 2014.
“We are glad to be associated with Shaadi.com. The movie is a love story which revolves around two people and their families who are from two different states. So this relationship with Shaadi.com is a perfect fit,” added Dharma Productions CEO Apoorva Mehta.
