Official Trailer Out: Pati Patni Aur Woh
The trailer of a modern-day version of Sanjeev Kumar’s 1978 iconic comedy Pati, Patni Aur Woh was released. Starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday in the lead roles, the film follows the roles of Aaryan as Chintu Tyagi who falls in love with a colleague despite being married to a lady ie Pednekar.
The trailer shows that Aaryan and Pedenkar were leading a blissfully happy married life until Panday enters their life. Aaryan is playing the role of Chintu Tyagi, a government servant from Kanpur who got married to Pednekar’s character but has eyes for his colleague, played by Panday.
Things get complicated when Pednekar starts doubting his intentions and ultimately leaves him. From a revamped peppy dance numbers, quirky one-liners to Aaryan’s famous monologue delivery (yet again), the films seems an entertainer. Aparshakti Khurrana also plays a major role in the comedy as Aaryan’s best friend. Isn’t it an interesting trailer?
If we talk about how different the film is from it’s original director Mudassar Aziz told Mid-day, “Modern-day relationships are based on different value systems. Hence, we turn things around on the concept level itself and re-wrote the plot. This film shares nothing with the original other than its title and logline.”
The old film stated that Ranjeet Chaddha who was a middle aged married man , has an extra-marital affair with his secretary Nirmala Deshpande (played by Ranjeeta Kaur). He makes her believe that his wife is terminally ill and then they will soon be able to marry after she passes. His lies are eventually revealed after his suspicious wife, played by Vidya Sinha, busts him.
This trailer of Kartik Aryan, Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday’s ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh’ (Pati Patni Aur Woh Trailer) is showcasing different story line.
As expected, this film by director Mudassar Aziz Aziz is full of humour. In the film, Kartik Aryan’s acts as husband and Bhumi Pednekar as wife, while Ananya Panday is going to be seen in the role which is between the husband and wife.
All the characters look and feel in the trailer of the film looks fantastic. As soon as Kartik Aryan is seen in the role of a romantic mood husband, Bhumi is playing the role of a cool wife. While the glamorous look of Ananya Pandey is overshadowed in her role throughout the trailer.
Actually, this is an adaptation of BR Chopra’s 1978 film ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh’ and the title of both the films is the same.
In that film Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha and Ranjita Kaur were in the lead roles which was primarily based on the Extra Marital Affair. This film is also similar to that. See also the special trailer of the film.
Sharing the fascinating posters of the Mudassar Aziz directorial, Bhumi wrote on Instagram, “Daaye ho ya baaye, Kahin nahi tikti Chintu Tyagi ki nigahein with the hashtag #PatiPatniAurWoh.”
In the posters, Kartik’s Chintu is seen being dependent onto both women for comfort and company. While the two women pose in an elegant manner,Kartik can be seen bringing his fun side out in the background.
The colourful posters promised that the film is going to be a fun-filled glimpse into the life of a married couple.
After releasing character posters of lead stars Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday, filmmakers of Pati, Patni Aur Woh also unveiled new film posters on Wednesday morning. This movie features Kartik, Bhumi and Ananya in the lead roles as the respective husband, wife and the ‘other woman’ avatars, the film posters have definitely raised the expectations of the film going audiences. Pati, Patni Aur Woh is an effective adaptation of the 1978 hit starring Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha and Ranjeeta Kaur.
Also, keeping in mind the trend of revamping old Bollywood chartbusters, the makers of Pati Patni Aur Woh have used Ankhiyon Se Goli Mare from Govinda and Raveena Tandon’s 1998 film Dulhe Raja.
Pati Patni Aur Woh is Ananya Panday’s second Bollywood feature after Student Of The Year 2, which released in May this year. When discussing about her new film, Ananya earlier told news agency IANS, “I am very excited for this film and It’s really a funny movie which the audience will enjoy watching.”
The primary characters of Pati Patni Aur Woh is supported by Aparshakti Khurana, who plays Kartik Aaryan’s onscreen confidant Abhishek. Pati Patni Aur Woh, which is directed by Mudassar Aziz, is slated for December 6 release.
In the film, Aparshakti Khurana is also seen alongside Kartik Aryan, Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday. In the film, he is once again gathering the atmosphere by becoming a friend of the hero. The film will be released in theatres on December 6. However, the path of this film at the box office is not going to be easy. Because of this very day, Panipat, the film of Arjun Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt, is going to be released. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes will also be set on this collision at the box office.

Looks like several dislikes on the youtube video is the new generation’s way of protest. Recently, Sadak 2 hit the milestone of being the most disliked videos. The newly released song “ Beyonce Sharma Jayegi “ from the Bollywood movie Khaali peeli could be the next winner. Filmmaker of the movies recently launched the song starring Ananya Pandey and Ishaan Khattar. The song is getting special attention specifically one of the lyrics, “Tujhe dekh ke goriya, Beyonce bhi Sharma jayegi”, which translates to “with one look at you, oh fair lady. Even Beyonce will be embarrassed”.
Indians apologized to Beyoncé
This song has taken a Strom over internet by netizens giving all sorts of disagreements for the song. Trending on the internet is “we are sorry Beyonce”, people have said that what kind of embarrassment this song talks about? The second-hand embarrassment of Beyonce or the embarrassment of Indians that lead them to apologize to Beyonce.
Keeping aside the humour, the song has also raised questions over the racism in Bollywood which is clearly reflected in Bollywood movies and songs which was forever prevalent and continues to date. The idea of Bollywood selling the word”gori or goriya” is the clear remark of widespread racism and portrayal of fair as beautiful and being dark as “ugly” has long continued in Bollywood.The famous song from old times “hum kale hain to kya Hua, Dil wale hain” meaning, “it doesn’t matter if I am black, since I have a big heart” shows the prevalence of racism rooted way back and looks like the trend away from being over.
Netizens slammed Bollywood over racism
Netizens have described the song as extremely regressive and racist as it uses the colour to degrade a woman. The people are very upset with Bollywood for promoting the comparison based on colour. “How can they write lyrics like that using the fair as an adjective while comparing a black woman? Are we still having this discussion in 2020”? Some even jokingly said that Beyonce has a record of never losing any lawsuit and warned Zee Music Company, in case Beyonce decides to sue them.
Some even slammed Bollywood saying that supporting the movement of “black lives matter” and then releasing a song like this. People said that it is a serious issue and reflects the problem in India where “fair” is described as feminine beauty and a standard of beauty. People described Bollywood as one of the major reasons and promoters of this kind of behaviour.
In regard, to all these debates going on, Khali Pelli director Maqbool Khan said that the song is not racist. He said that he apologizes if anyone felt offended”. He said that the song doesn’t discriminate on skin colour. He said Goriya is a casual word often and traditionally used to address an Indian girl in movies and songs. Which is actually the problem people are talking about.
People are however not satisfied as the problem they highlighted has been stated as something normal by the makers of the film.
Bollywood, which has a very prominent impact on Indian people and many others around the world. Being such a big industry, Bollywood needs to be more careful and not normalize such issues. Racism is a big problem and offensive songs like these are alarming.
