Yes, this is Rani Mukerji. As she will be seen in the Yash Raj film Dil Bole Hadippa. The actress essays the role of a Sikh boy from a small village, in this full-on entertainer based in Punjab. The look of the film has been done by Manish Malhotra while Rani's sardar look has been done by Mike Stringer from UK, who styled the Dhoom 2 look.


The film, directed by Anurag Singh, stars Shahid Kapoor, Anupam Kher, Rakhi Sawant and Sherlyn Chopra. The film is said to be inspired by She's The Man, smainlining Amanda Bynes.

What it's about

DBH is a love triangle between Rani Mukerji, Shahid Kapur and Sherlyn Chopra and has Rani masquerading as a male Sikh cricketer. She makes it to the men's team captained by Shahid Kapoor to prove she can play as well as any man. Along the way, Shasha and Rani fall in love.

The film was earlier titled Hadippa but Sanjay Leela Bhansali had the rights to the title for the last three years. YRF was unable to convince Bhansali to part with the title, which led them to rename the film, Dil Bole Hadippa.

The film is slated to release on September 18.
