The upcoming film follows two love stories in parallel universes that face challenges of social status, caste, religion, and inequality. It is an India-U.K. co-production set across both countries in which the two storylines are interconnected by a podcast called Almost Pyaar with DJ Mohabbat. And Vicky plays that DJ who talks about the need for love in times of hate. The film will mark Vicky’s fourth collaboration with Anurag after Bombay Velvet, Raman Raghav 2.0, and Manmarziyaan. Talking about his association, he told Variety, “Anurag sir has been a mentor, a friend and in ways he’s been my window into the world of cinema. When he spoke to me about this role I was immediately on board and this special appearance is for a special film, made by my special friend.”

Further talking about the movie, Anurag revealed that the film also has Alaya F and debutant Karan Mehta. “I just needed two very young, good actors with a lot of range – because they play two different characters who are so starkly different. They’re very urban, based in London, in one story and based in the mountains of India in the other. Plus, they had to look like people who could also belong there,” he told Variety. Backed by Good Bad Films, the film will be released theatrically by Zee Studios on Feb. 3.
