Anushka Sharma and Varun Dhawan’s desi banter on Twitter had us wondering what Sui Dhaaga is all about. The actors reveal more about their first collaboration on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, and also dedicate it to the Mahatma. The idea behind the film is to celebrate Mahatma Gandhi and his Made In India philosophy. The Yash Raj Films production will hit theatres on September 28, 2018. YRF describes Sui Dhaaga as a ‘heart warming story of pride and self reliance, rooted in the heart of India.’
The Dum Laga Ke Haisha duo are the masterminds behind this one too. Written and director by Sharat Katariya, Maneesh Sharma will be producing the project.
The actors are excited about not only the chance to work together, but also the subject of the film.
From Gandhiji to Modiji, our country’s leader have always endorsed the mantra of Made In India. With Sui Dhaaga, I am proud to take their message to millions of movie lovers in a manner that is entertaining and relevant. I really liked the script Sharat had written and I am happy that I am teaming up with YRF on this movie. Anushka and me and teaming up for the first time so I am sure there will be fireworks.Varun Dhawan, Actor (according to a YRF press release)
We’re well aware of Anushka’s love for quirky ideas and hatke storytelling.
I always get excited with unique ideas that have human interest stories. Sui Dhaaga is a story of self reliance that I believe will connect to the grassroots level with every Indian. And am really looking forward to working with Varun Dhawan and the team of Maneesh Sharma and Sharat Katariya.Anushka Sharma, Actor (according to a YRF press release)
