Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra are on a promotional spree as both of them were recently spotted in Delhi promoting their upcoming film 'Jabariya Jodi'. Considering the film's realistic subject, the director Prashant Singh is getting threat calls from the real baahubalis of the nation!
Prashant Singh hails from the heartland, so he knows a lot about the powerful people who are in the business of groom kidnapping. Prashant himself has crafted Sidharth’s (Malhotra) style, be it his dressing style or the dialect. Most of the film’s elements have been inspired by real-life baahubalis. But, despite the threats, the makers are determined to release it in the heartland.
The upcoming Sidharth Malhotra-Parineeti Chopra starrer Jabariya Jodi is making quite a buzz. The quirky trailer promises lots of fun, and the theme of the film is ‘jabariya vivaah’ (forced marriage).
Apparently, the film is based on real-life couples and real-life groom kidnappers from parts of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The topic has been dealt with in the most sensitive and fun manner possible, it has not gone down well with the baahubalis (strongmen) in the areas. They have reached out to Prashant Singh and called him asking not to promote the film and objecting to its release.
Prashant got this threat calls immediately after the trailer launch. Unknown people are constantly calling him, asking him to avoid promoting the film and to not even release it. The baahubalis are feeling insecure and scared of being exposed.
Produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor, and Shailesh R Singh, Jabariya Jodi is a Balaji Telefilms and Karma Media & Entertainment production and releases on August 2, 2019.
Summary
Based on groom kidnappings in Bihar, where the groom is kidnapped to avoid dowry, the film has Siddharth Malhotra playing a thug who helps kidnap grooms. It also features Parineeti Chopra in a prominent role.

Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra’s Jabariya Jodi was gearing up for an August 2, 2019 release. SidNeeti fans, as Sidharth and Parineeti fans, like calling themselves have been awaiting the release of the love story with bated breath after the successful Hasee Toh Phasee that released in 2014.
However, the makers of Jabariya Jodi have decided to push the release of the film. It will now hit the screens a week later, that is, on August 9, 2019.
This decision was taken after considering the fact that there are too many releases on August 2nd and many previously released films like JudgeMentall Hai Kya are enjoying a solid run. To add to that, prominent exhibitors across India came together and requested the makers to move ahead to August 9 to avoid the clutter. Jabariya Jodi will now enjoy a solo release.
Also, the film will have a holiday advantage of Bakri Eid which is on August 12. And with Saaho getting pushed to month end, Jabariya Jodi may also get the advantage of the Independence Day weekend. Jabariya Jodi, based on the subject of groom-kidnapping, is directed by Prashant Singh and is produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms and Shaailesh R Singh’s Karma Media and Entertainment.
