Ahead of its theatrical release on August 25, Raaj Shaandilyaa’s comedy sequel, Dream Girl 2, has been doing a star-studded promotional campaign. Ayushmann Khurrana’s cross-dressed character, Pooja, has been engaging in humorous phone conversations with Bollywood hunks, including Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan and Ranveer Singh’s Rocky. In the latest promo of Dream Girl 2, Chunky Panday, father of lead actress Ananya Panday, makes an appearance.
On Saturday, Ananya took to Instagram to share the new promo of Dream Girl 2. The video featured Ananya talking to her father, actor Chunky Panday, sharing her frustration over the fact that Ayushmann’s character of Pooja is getting all the attention in the film’s promotions. She requests him to intervene and speak to the production house, Balaji Telefilms, owned by Ekta Kapoor and her mother Shobha Kapoor.
As Ananya leaves the room, Chunky assures her that he will speak to Balaji and pretends to dial a number. However, he mouths his famous “I’m joking” dialogue from the Housefull franchise and accidentally dials Pooja’s number instead. He flirts with Pooja, who promptly reminds Chunky about the film’s release date in the theatres.
Ananya posted the video on Instagram and playfully captioned it, “Papa?? Really?? I thought you were speaking to Balaji!”
In an exclusive interview with Hindustan Times, Ayushmann Khurrana discussed Dream Girl 2, the sequel to Raaj Shaandilyaa’s 2019 hit comedy. In the film, Ayushmann will reprise his role as a Mathura guy who impersonates a female, Pooja, to engage with lonely callers. However, this time, he will also appear in a cross-dressed visual avatar as Pooja, taking the concept to the next level. “It’s not just the voice, it’s also the visual, as you see in the teasers. It’s going to be a 2.0 version literally in Dream Girl 2 and I really look forward to that,” he said during the interview.
