Disha will be seen portraying the role of a small-town Punjabi girl in the film.
Confirming Disha’s role in the film, Ekta too revealed, “Disha has a strong connect with the youth and I couldn’t think of anyone else who could portray the wild yet innocent, and crazy yet sensible character. To add to that, Disha’s oomph takes it notches higher,” Times Now reported.
Interestingly, this yet-to-be-titled comedy is only written by Raaj Shaandaliyaa, while Ashima Chibber will take the director’s seat. Meanwhile, Disha is currently gearing up for Malang, co-starring Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor, Kunal Kemmu among others.
