Yami Gautam is extremely busy with her back-to-back commitments. While she is busy promoting her film Bala, she has also wrapped her next film Ginny Weds Sunny. After a 45-day schedule in Ghaziabad, Noida and Karnal, shooting for the rom-com film, which also stars Vikrant Massey, wrapped up on October 24.

“Shooting is complete except for a couple of songs, which will be filmed shortly,” informs first-time director Puneet Khanna. When asked about his lead actors who are sharing screen space for the first time, he reveals that he needed someone innocent and endearing for Sunny, and Vikrant was a perfect fit. “For Ginny, we were looking for a bubbly, pretty, energetic girl and zeroed in on Yami. Both are brilliant actors, and I couldn’t have asked for a better jodi as a debutant,” he shares.

Puneet adds that the actor-duo shares great chemistry, both on and off-screen, which kept the atmosphere light during the shoot. “We were laughing throughout, and that bonhomie translated beautifully on screen. They are both contrasting characters and that’s the crux of our story,” Puneet explains, asserting that his hero is an “unexplored powerhouse of talent that is going to explode soon.”

Puneet describes his directorial debut, which is produced by Vinod Bachchan, as a “slightly unique take on new-age romance”, and he believes that the audience will be able to relate to the story and the characters.  The film is targeting a March 2020 release.
