In recent Bollywood trends, we have noticed that filmmakers are now making bold choices of challenging society's age-old traditions and customs, the most prominent example being the recent Ayushmann Khurrana film 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan'. The latest to jump on the bandwagon is the upcoming social comedy film 'Unfair And Lovely'.

Randeep Hooda and Ileana D'Cruz are all set to star in the film. As the title suggests, the film deals with the social stigma around dark skin. Ileana essays a dusky girl named Lovely battling discrimination in present-day Haryana, with Randeep playing her love interest. The film marks the debut of Balwinder Singh Janjua. Balwinder has previously penned the sports drama 'Saand Ki Aankh' (2019), a biopic of octogenarian sharpshooters Chandra and Prakashi Tomar. He has also written films including 'Mubarakan' and 'Firangi'.

When Ileana D'Cruz was asked by a media portal about it, she revealed that she is very excited that she landed the role and described it as a very relatable character. She said that she is aware that the character needs to be portrayed with a lot of sensitivity and she assured her fans that the movie will leave them with a smile. Randeep Hooda who has always been seen in intense roles was equally thrilled about working in a genre he has never done before.

Randeep Hooda was recently seen in 'Love Aaj Kal' (2020). His upcoming release is 'Extraction', an international action film fronted by Chris Hemsworth. Produced by the Russo Brothers, the Netflix release is set to arrive on April 24. Randeep is also part of Salman Khan's 'Radhe', where he essays the antagonist. Ileana D'Cruz last appeared in Anees Bazmee's 'Pagalpanti' (2019). She stars opposite Abhishek Bachchan in the upcoming 'The Big Bull'.

'Unfair and Lovely' is written by Anil Rodhan and Kunal Mandekar. It is the directorial debut of Balwinder Singh Janjua and is being produced by his banner, Movie Tunnel Productions.
