You read a “shocking” headline, you clicked on the link , now you’re here and we have your attention- it’s a hack that never fails.
We didn’t completely lie though, the video does feature Diljit Dosanjh, Kriti Sanon and Varun Sharma, but there’s nothing shocking or even remotely scandalous about this video.
Headlines that scream “READ ME NOW” are used all the time to grab eyeballs. It’s just one of the things we do when we interview Bollywood celebrities, but there’s a lot more.
Watch this video, where the cast of Arjun Patiala shows you what an honest Bollywood interview would look like.
Produced by Bhushan Kumar of T-Series and Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films, Arjun Patiala is a spoof on Bollywood cop films and is directed by Rohit Jugraj, who is known for Punjabi films like Jatt James Bond and Sardaarji 2. The film is set for release in theatres on 26 July, where it will clash with the Rajkummar Rao-Kangana Ranaut starrer Judgementall Hai Kya.
