From hospital mix-ups to awkward family dinners, the trailer is a laugh-a-minute preview. The director’s knack for weaving humor into even the most chaotic situations shines through brilliantly.
The trailer also features a remix version of ‘Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam,’ from the 1998 hit comedy-action film ‘Duplicate’ starring superstar Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla, and Sonali Bendre in the lead roles. This nostalgic touch has undoubtedly struck a chord with the audience, bringing in a wave of excitement amongst older Bollywood enthusiasts. The audience can see Vicky Kaushal struggling to come to terms with his new reality.
