The trailer of
Bareilly Ki Barfi is here and is here to make us ROFL. Meet Kriti Sanon as the
Bareilly Ki Barfi Bitti in the new trailer of the Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari-directed movie. Also meet Ayushmann Khurrana as the scheming Chirag Dubey while
Rajkummar Rao joins the cast as the naive Pritam Bidrohi. How Bitti, Chirag and Pritam managed to be each other's acquaintances forms the first half of the trailer while Rajkummar clearly steals the show in the second part. This is how it goes. Bitti, who is a fan of Hollywood films and secretly practises break dance, is a misfit in her village in Uttar Pradesh. She embarks on a hunt for the perfect soulmate and stumbles upon Chirag mid-way.
She realises Pritam, an aspiring author, could be 'the one' and is adamant that friend-zoned Chirag joins her in the quest. Chirag agrees but has an evil plan up his sleeve. However, the plan fails, everything back-fires and Bitti continues to grow fond of Pritam. Well done, Rajkummar... errr... Pritam.
"Presenting the yummiest trailer of our
Bareilly Ki Barfi," tweeted Rajkumar while Ayushmann wrote: "Muh meetha kijiye". "It's time to be a part of the tastiest story of the year," Kriti added while sharing the trailer.
Kriti shared the first look of the three
Bareilly ki characters with this poster earlier today.
Earlier, of her "tomboyish" character, she had said: "
She is a girl living in Bareilly but doing things on her own terms. She is someone who is quite bratty and who questions the basic norms. What I really like about the film is also the fact that every relationship is shown very nicely. Also, for me to play a UP girl was very fresh," reported IANS.
Bareilly Ki Barfi is scheduled for August 18.
