The makers of the upcoming romantic cop spoof comedy Arjun Patiala have released the first look posters of the film featuring the main cast of Kriti Sanon, Diljit Dosanjh and Varun Sharma.

Set in a small town, Arjun Patiala stars Diljit as a quirky cop, the titular Arjun Patiala. His poster finds the Udta Punjab star geared up with a mic, rose and cans of beer instead of the usual artillery. Maddox films, the producers of the comedy, shared the poster introducing Arjun with “#ArjunPatiala, muscular nahi cute. With you. For you. Always.”

Take a look.

Kriti introduced her character, who is a journalist, as “Reporting ka craze hai, bijli se bhi tezz hai! Miliye Ritu se.”

Meanwhile Varun Sharma, popularly known for his role as Chucha in the Fukrey franchise, shared his own character, writing “Karne aaya hoon hungama, saath mein leke full on DRA-MAA! Presenting you, Onida Singh!” Varun plays Onida, another cop who assists Arjun.

Produced by Bhushan Kumar of T-Series and Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films, Arjun Patiala is directed by Rohit Jugraj, who is known for Punjabi films like Jatt James Bond and Sardaarji 2. The trailer for the film will drop on 20 June. It is set for release in theatres on 26 July, where it will clash with the Rajkummar Rao-Kangana Ranaut starrer Mental Hai Kya.
