A while ago, T-Series and BR Studios had announced a JV for a multiple film deal. The first venture out of that is the Pati Patni Aur Woh remake which is an adaptation of the 1978 BR Chopra satire on marital life. While the original had Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha and Ranjeeta in the lead, the adaptation stars Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar, and Ananya Panday.
Producers Bhushan Kumar, Juno Chopra and Abhay Chopra who last produced Bhoothnath Returns are glad to have come back together for this film. While the core of the story remains the same, the makers have contemporized it to fit today’s time. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, the film goes on floors in February.
Commenting on this association with BR Studios and Pati Patni Aur Woh, Bhushan Kumar of T-Series said, “We had a great synergy with BR Studios when we worked on Bhoothnath Returns a few years ago. We are happy to produce Pati Patni Aur Woh with them. Juno, Abhay, and Mudassar have given an interesting tweak to the story that matches today’s times. Kartik, Bhumi, and Ananya are new age actors who are talented and add their spark to the story. We have worked with Kartik in Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and we are glad that we are working again. Bhumi has proven what a fantastic actor she is while Ananya is new but audiences will fall in love with her. The film will so have great music.”
Juno Chopra of BR Studios added, “We are extremely happy to associate with T-series and Bhushan Kumar for this film. Pati Patni Aur Woh was widely accepted when it was released and we believe that the subject still has the power to draw the audience to the theatres. We have treated it with a modern touch now and have a fantastic team to take our vision forward.”
