The makers of Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga unveiled the second trailer just few days prior to the release of the film. The Shelly Chopra Dhar-directed film featuring real life father-daughter duo Anil Kapoor and Sonam, Rajkummar Rao and Juhi Chawla is a story about "family", "love" and "acceptance". As evident from the first trailer of Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, it is not the usual love story that we are accustomed to seeing in most of the films today. The trailer begins with Anil Kapoor declaring the nikaah of his daughter Sweety (Sonam Kapoor) to Rajkummar Rao, who appears to be a close acquaintance of the family. Sonam, who is clearly not happy with marriage prospect, decides to compromise her happiness for her family if Rajkummar is ready to take the leap with her. "Yeh hi sahi hai, agar tumhe accept hai toh main tumse shaadi karungi. Life mein sab compromise kartein hai, apni family ke liye main itna toh kar sakti hoon," Sonam says in the trailer.
All hell breaks loose when Sweety's brother realizes that she is not in love with someone else. Though his identity is not revealed in the trailer, clearly the family resentful of this union.
