MUMBAI: The team of Vicky Donor is back with Piku, a quirky slice-of-life film, that takes audiences on a roller coaster ride of a crazy father-daughter relationship essayed by Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone, along with Irrfan Khan, in a pivotal author backed role.
The three superstars launched the trailer of the movie on 25 March at a suburban multiplex in Mumbai, amidst a packed house that comprised not just media personnel, but also their parents, in yet another marketing innovation by team Piku.
One of the most awaited films of 2015, Piku is a family comedy drama. The trailer was every bit a glimpse into the unconventional and quirky story, all told in signature Shoojit Sircar style.
Sircar said, “Piku is a story that will warm your heart and make you smile! We have the best of the talent coming together for a refreshing tale of a father-daughter relationship. I am privileged to direct Bachchan along with Deepika and Irrfan. They are three powerhouse performers and it doesn’t get better than this for me."
The movie also marks coming together of Sircar, Ronnie Lahiri and Juhi Chaturvedi, the team behind Vicky Donor. Produced by MSM Motion Pictures, Saraswati Entertainment and Rising Sun Films, the film releases on 8 May and will be distributed worldwide by Yash Raj Films.
