August 12,2025 – The official trailer of the upcoming romantic drama Param Sundari was released on Monday, confirming the much-anticipated pairing of actors Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor in a cross-cultural love story. The film, directed by Tushar Jalota and produced by Dinesh Vijan under the banner of Maddock Films, is scheduled for a theatrical release on August 29, 2025.
The three-minute trailer introduces audiences to the lead characters — Param, a Punjabi boy from Delhi portrayed by Sidharth Malhotra, and Sundari, a Malayali girl from Kerala played by Janhvi Kapoor. The narrative, as depicted in the trailer, follows their romance as it navigates cultural differences, family expectations, and comedic situations.
Visuals highlight the scenic beauty of Kerala, including monsoon-soaked streets, backwater bike rides, and historic churches, offering a strong regional flavor to the film’s setting. References to cinema icons Rajinikanth and Shah Rukh Khan are interwoven into the narrative, adding a pop culture element that has resonated with viewers.
Two songs from the film’s soundtrack — Pardesiya and Bheegi Saree — were released prior to the trailer launch and have already gained popularity on music streaming platforms. Both tracks combine traditional melodies with contemporary arrangements, aligning with the film’s theme of blending cultures.
The trailer has received positive responses from both the public and the film industry. Actor Veer Pahariya referred to the film as a “blockbuster in the making,” while filmmaker Karan Johar praised the chemistry between Malhotra and Kapoor, describing it as “refreshing and fun.” Social media engagement has been strong, with hashtags such as #ParamSundariTrailer trending on multiple platforms.
With its scheduled release positioned just before the festive season, Param Sundari is expected to target both metropolitan multiplex audiences and family viewers in smaller cities. Maddock Films, known for its culturally rich yet commercially successful productions, appears to be banking on the film’s blend of romance, humor, and visual appeal to deliver a strong opening at the box office.
The release of the trailer has heightened anticipation for the film, which is being promoted as a celebration of India’s cultural diversity, bridging linguistic, regional, and social differences through a story of love.
