What A ‘Jabariya Jodi’: Parineeti Chopra And Sidharth Malhotra To Star In Ekta Kapoor’s Next

B-town has lately been seeing a lot of couples with amazing chemistry back on screen. This time, it’s Parineeti Chopra and Sidharth Malhotra who are back again in Ekta Kapoor’s new movie Jabariya Jodi. The shoot will reportedly start soon in Lucknow, and the plot of the movie is around a ‘forced couple’, which literally is what Jabariya Jodi means.

The two actors have shared the screen together earlier in Hasee Toh Phasee and we loved the onscreen chemistry. The roles haven’t been confirmed yet but all we know is Sidharth is playing a Bihari thug. 

According to a source in a news daily, “The movie is based on pakadwa vivaah, the makers felt that this was an apt name. In Bhojpuri, jabariya means zabardasti, so the title refers to a couple who is forced to get married. The two actors have also shot for the posters before leaving for Lucknow, so they should be out soon.”

And you won’t believe who suggested the title of the story! It was none other than Sidharth who suggested the title when he came across this word reading something and suggested it to the team and they liked it. Quite a shocker, right?

Apart from Jabariya Jodi, there’s a lot more in line for Sidharth as he will be working on a movie based on the life of Captain Vikram Batra. While Parineeti also has a lot of on her plate and will be next seen in the movie Namaste London and Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar alongside Arjun Kapoor and also in Kesari.
