Directed by Rahul Bhole and Vinit Kanojia, and written by Suraj Baraliya, Lagan Special promises a delightful fusion of traditional wedding customs, foot-tapping music, infectious laughter, and heartfelt performances.
Opening up about the theme of Lagan Special and his character, Malhar Thakar said, “When I first heard the script from Suraj Baraliya, I was taken aback by the level of entertainment the movie promised. Amidst the romantic backdrop, the story explores the passion and emotions of the wedding planners, designers and the families striving to perfect the special day for the bride and the groom. Shekhar, the character I portray, embodies the innocence and excitement of a man preparing for marriage, but a confusion between the to be married couple leads to chaos. This sets Shekhar on a daunting task to win back Suman's trust. Now, as Lagan Special is releasing on ShemarooMe, the audiences will be able to resonate with every emotion Shekhar and Suman experience, drawn in by their undeniable chemistry.”
Puja Joshi, who plays Malhar's onscreen bride in the film, added, “Marriage is one of the most important days in a girl's life, and my character, Suman is just like any other girl eagerly awaiting her big day. However, her heart, hopes, and trust are shattered by something she never imagined, even in her worst nightmares. Lagan Special is a project very close to my heart because I lived every moment of Suman's journey on set. I'm thrilled that the film is finally releasing on ShemarooMe, allowing everyone to be a part of this uniquely extraordinary wedding.”
