She will be sharing screen space with singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh and Suraj Sharma, of 'Life of Pi' fame.



The movie, directed by debutant Anshai Lal, has been tagged as an uncommon romantic film set in Phillaur, Punjab.

"Phillauri has a unique premise. It took almost 100 years, a crazy Punjabi wedding and rank strangers to complete this love story, and that's the crux of the film," said Sharma.
