Presented by Fox Star India, Dharma Productions in association with Phantom Films, has released the first trailer of Vikas Bahl’s next directorial, Shaandar.
Shaandar was extensively filmed in the UK last year and stars Alia Bhatt and Shahid Kapoor along with Pankaj Kapur. The trailer has already been viewed over 4 million times on YouTube.
Synospis: A big fat “Shaandaar” Indian wedding, which is actually a business merger between two of the biggest business families of India, is happening at an exotic castle in Europe. Mrs. Kamla Arora, the grandmother of the Arora family, the sole owner of the billion-dollar business and the property, has planned their wedding. Kamla Arora , treats everyone like her servants including her three sons, Bipin (the eldest), Vipul and Vinay. Mr.Fandwani, the groom’s father is a loud Sindhi businessman who is the counter to Kamla Arora: The Fandwanis dress in gold, accessorise in gold and if possible they drink and eat gold.
Based against the backdrop of the Shaandaar wedding is a love triangle between (our protagonists) Alia and Jagjinder Joginder and Bipin ( Alia’s father). Bipin believes there’s no guy that will be good enough for his daughter while Aliya is a dreamer but her dreams are whacked out and Jagjinder Joginder is a doer, he can make anything happen! …And for obvious reasons Bipin hates Jagjinder Joginder.
The journey of Alia, Jagjinder Joginder and Bipin in the chaotic and lavish wedding is the story of Shaandaar. It’s a fairy tale love story that everyone has always dreamt of…
20th Century Fox will release Shaandar in UK cinemas on 22nd October 2015.
