Varun Mitra is all set to star in the upcoming romantic film, Jalebi that also stars Rhea Chakraborty and Digangana Suryavanshi.

Speaking of how he bagged the role, the actor said, `I remember meeting Mukeshji and Bhatt Sahab for the first time. They had watched the trailer of my 2015 film, Kaash which premiered at the Tokyo Film festival and my Amazon Kindle ad which were enough for them to swing their hands over the table and welcome me aboard.`

Excited to work with the Bhatt brothers and Vishesh Films', he further added, `I couldn't have asked for a better start than Vishesh Films. More than the big banner, it's the Bhatt brothers who have made this a memorable experience. I'm going to cherish the time spent with Bhattsahab, just talking about life.''

The trailer of the movie was released last week and has been appreciated widely for its music. The film is slated to release on October 12th, 2018.
