Scheming mothers-in-law and possessive fathers are so yesterday. In Luv Ranjan’s new movie, a young woman’s nemesis turns out to be the best friend of her husband-to-be. Sweety (Nusrat Bharucha) has to face the wrath of Sonu (Kartik Aaryan) for committing the crime of marrying his friend Titu (Sunny Singh Nijjar). As both go to war, audiences will be reminded of Ranjan’s breakout hit Pyaar Ka Punchnama (2011).

The movie also stars Alok Nath in a decidedly non-sanskari role. It will be released on February 9, 2018.

Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety.

The trailer was preceded by a clever (and funnier) video that not only explained the title but also addressed concerns that Ranjan hadn’t managed to move beyond his Pyaar Ka Punchnama universe.
