Indoo Ki Jawani went on the floors in Lucknow and stars Aditya Seal as the male lead. Aditya was last seen as the second male lead in Student of the Year 2. He has featured in few more films including Tum Bin 2 and Namaste England. The film is being made under the banner of T-Series, Emmay Entertainment and Electric Apples and is scheduled to release on June 5, 2020.
According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, the film is a coming of age comedy, which revolves around a feisty girl named Indoo from Ghaziabad whose left and right swipes on a dating app results in hilarious chaos.
The actor shot at the Gomti Nagar area in Lucknow on her first day. The first sequence had her beating some goons. The actor has also shared a glimpse of her kick-boxing practice on her Instagram stories, as part of her prep.
Kiara had told the publication in an interview, “I’ve been prepping for the character ever since I signed the film. It’s finally time to live the character. Indoo is a part of every young Indian girl; she’s endearing, lovable and quirky. It’s going to be a cracking entertainer.”
The report also quoted a source as saying, “Considering that her character is from Ghaziabad, where people speak in a certain manner, Kiara worked extensively on her diction and pronunciation. She also did look tests to get the appearance right as well as the mannerisms and body language associated with girls from the city.”
Besides Indoo Ki Jawani and Laxmmi Bomb, Kiara has three more films in her kitty, Good Newwz, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Shershaah. Her last film Kabir Singh, opposite Shahid Kapoor is the second highest grossing film of this year with domestic box office collections of Rs 278 crore.
