Behen Hogi Teri trailer: Rajkummar Rao crusades against Bollywood’s Rahuls

At almost three minutes, the trailer of Behen Hogi Teri is slightly too long and offers little to tickle the audience. While the comedy is quite average, the lack of freshness adds to the mediocrity.

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap shared the first trailer of Rajkummar Rao’s Behen Hogi Teri late on Monday. Directed by Ajay K Pannalal and backed by Amul Mohan, the movie stars Shruti Haasan opposite Rao.

Rajkummar Rao plays Gattu in Behen Hogi Teri.

Though Rajkummar has a comedy-drama film to his credit (the Sonam Kapoor-starrer Dolly Ki Doli), Behen Hogi Teri will be his first solo lead romantic-comedy.

At almost three minutes, the trailer is slightly too long and offers little to tickle the audience. While the comedy is quite average, the lack of freshness adds to the mediocrity.

Explaining the quirky title of the movie, Rajkummar had earlier said, “My character is madly in love with her, but since he is from the same ‘mohalla’, they are neighbours, everybody thinks that ‘mohalley kay log bhai-behen he hai, ye toh ghar ki baat hai’. But how, in his heart and mind, he knows she can’t be his sister. That’s how the title comes.”
