Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Athiya Shetty will be seen together in Debamitra Hassan’s Motichoor Chaknachoor, a “quirky wedding comedy”, Mumbai Mirror reported.
“My team and I were very impressed with this humorous story of an unlikely couple,” producer Rajesh Bhatia said. “There is a lot of situational comedy that plays out between the bride and the groom’s families and Nawaz playing the hero makes it all the more exciting.”
Shetty made her debut in the 2015 film Hero and was seen in the comedy Mubarkan (2017). She will be playing a small-town woman from North India. Shooting will begin in Lucknow in September and will continue till the end of December. A release date is yet to be decided.
