A live-in relationship has been explored umpteen times in the Indian film fraternity. But did you ever imagine a story wherein a girl moves in with her boyfriend's family and vice versa before getting married to understand each other's backgrounds and cultures? Karan Johar is making it possible with Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. It is a story of a Bengali girl named Rani who falls in love with a Punjabi boy, Rocky. While they desire to marry, the primary obstacle is their respective families and the diverse backgrounds they come from.
The trailer of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani showcased how Rocky struggles to fit into Rani's sophisticated and educated family. Rani too faces challenges while trying to impress Rocky's disciplined and rigid grandmother (Jaya Bachchan).
Dharma Productions is known for telling stories that are progressive, ahead of their time and modern despite being rooted in Indian culture and family values. From falling in love with a friend in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai to exploring the subject of infidelity in Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna to looking at the topic of a family switch, Karan has never failed to experiment with brave and unconventional stories.
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani releases on July 28.
