It's Kriti Sanon-Diljit Dosanjh pair in Dinesh Vijan's next Arjun Patiala

Mumbai: After the debacle of Raabta, Dinesh Vijan, is returning to direction with a new film titled Arjun Patiala. This film will again have his Raabta actress Kriti Sanon as a leading lady opposite Diljit Dosanjh as the male lead.

Kriti will be seen playing a journalist and Diljit in the titular role as a quirky, small town guy in the film. It’s a character-driven quirky comedy flick with a touch of realism and great music.

Sanon shared a series of photograph of herself along with Dosanjh and director Dinesh Vijan with caption. "This one's gonna be a mad fun ride! Arjun Patiala. Larger than Life! Can't wait to start rolling! Diljit Dosanjh, Dinesh Vijan."

Talking about the project, Dinesh Vijan said, “The Hindi film audience has already experienced Diljit’s intensity, now it’s time to laugh with him. Kriti is moving from Bareilly to Patiala to deliver another small town surprise and this time she is holding a pen.”

Kriti, who is very excited about the project said, “I love watching good comedies and while shooting for Bareilly Ki Barfi I realised that I enjoyed being a part of this world too. I am really looking forward to start shoot for Arjun Patiala with Diljit who I feel is extremely talented and I am also thrilled to be back with the Maddock team.”

The shooting of the film will start in February 2018 in Punjab.
