Bollywood actors Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra have just wrapped up the shooting of their upcoming film Jabariya Jodi. They celebrated the occasion with a wrap-up party in Mumbai last night. The film, which is a romantic comedy, is based on Pakadwa Vivah (forced marriage) which is rampant in Bihar. Sidharth Malhotra sgared his views with the media at the wrap-up party of “Jabariya Jodi” along with his co-actor Parineeti Chopra and director Prashant Singh here on Tuesday.

On the basic premise of the film, Sidharth said: “It is a romantic comedy film based in Patna (Bihar). It revolves around the concept of Pakadwa Vivah. We have been shooting for this film since last year. We created a lot of things of Patna in Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh).”

“I think I haven’t played this kind of role earlier in my career and for Pari (Parineeti Chopra) also, it’s a different world and different role. We are really excited for the film and that’s why we are celebrating with a wrap-up party of the film. The entire crew has worked really hard on this film and hopefully soon, in a month or two, we might release some content of the film,” the actor said.

Sidharth Malhotra’s last released film Aiyaary didn’t do well at the box office.

When asked about the pressure he is feeling with the release of Jabariya Jodi, he said: “We are nervous with every film. We are as nervous and as excited with every film.”

On the title of the film, the director said: “Since it is based on forced weddings that happen in Bihar and in Bihari language, forced means ‘jabariya’. So, that’s how we came up with the title of this film.”

When Parineeti Chopra was asked if she faced any difficulty in learning Bihari for the film, she said: “I think the good thing was that our director knows that world really well and in his Hindi also, there is a little bit flavour of Patna. So, it was really easy for me and Sidharth (Malhotra) because we used to follow Prashant blindly.”

Parineeti’s last released film Kesari turned out to be a box office hit.

Sharing about the pressure to follow it up with Jabariya Jodi, Parineeti said: “Whether you are coming from a success or whether you are coming from any sort of failure, it doesn’t matter because every film is a new test. Every Friday is a new exam. It doesn’t matter how big or small a star you are.

“Every film is a new test because it’s all in the audience’s hand. Audience have to love the film and accept it, so I hope we do best with this film.”

Jabariya Jodi is co-produced by Ekta Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor and Shailesh. R. Singh.
