Jabariya Jodi first look: Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra are in the mood for a selfie before a hapless groom

The thug look of Sidharth Malhotra will take you by surprise

Ever since they did Hasee Toh Phasee, fans have loved the jodi of #SidNeeti. After four years, Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra are reuniting for Prashant Singh’s Jabariya Jodi. The film is based on the concept of groom kidnapping. In the first look, we see a groom slumped on a decorated wedding chair. It is obvious that he has been drugged and kidnapped by the two. The Student Of The Year actor looks vastly different from his usual sophisticated self. With a craggy stubble and a glint in his eyes, he looks like a complete mischief maker. The outfit is like that of a desi ‘swag wala munda’. Suede boots, torn denims, a crumpled shirt with a jazzy waistcoast and a stole, the stylist has not left anything. Parineeti is wearing a pair of dhoti pants with a printed bralet teamed with a leather jacket with embellishments. Both of them look like rogues and the first look makes it evident. The film is produced by Balaji Motion Pictures.

The shoot for the film has begun in Lucknow. The movie is set in Patna, Bihar. The rains in Uttar Pradesh stalled the shoot for a bit. Aparshakti Khurrana plays the role of Parineeti’s neighbour in the film who is madly in love with her. The film is based on pakadwa vivaah and was earlier titled as Shotgun Shaadi. After this, Sidharth will be seen in the film based on the life of Captain Vikram Batra. Sanjeev K Jha, the writer of the film ssaid in a statement, “We always knew such forced marriages happen, but we didn’t know the magnitude of it. I was surprised to see the official data that said that more kidnappings happened in Bihar for the purpose of forced marriage than ransom. It was an eye-opener. It’s hard to believe that such bizarre practices happen in our vicinity even now.”
