There is immense curiosity surrounding Imtiaz Ali’s Jab Harry Met Sejal which stars Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma.
The superstar shared the mini trailer of the film a while ago and it’s hilarious.
Shah Rukh Khan is often seen as the charming hero in his films, however, he is showcased as the casinova Harry in this one. So much so that he calls himself ‘cheap’ and ‘a man with bad character.’

We also get a glimpse of Anushka (Sejal) in the trailer and we got to tell you that her Gujarati accent is on point. From the looks of it, she plays a naive girl who doesn’t believe what Harry is trying to tell her. In fact, she goes on to say, “Hota kya hai ladki ke saath, exactly kya hota hai?’.
Shah Rukh’s reaction to the question is epic.
Meanwhile, the title of this SRK-Anushka starrer was long awaited. The Ring was chosen as the working title of the film and since then so many names came and went.
First the grapevine suggested that the film will be called Rehnuma, then came in rumours that it will be titled Raula. Finally, the makers settled on Jab Harry Met Sejal.
The film happens to be King Khan's third collaboration with Anushka, after Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and Jab Tak Hain Jaan.

The movie, which will reportedly see SRK play a tour guide to Anushka, is believed to be vastly different from the kind of romantic films that Bollywood has seen till date.
Pre-production of the film had begun in April 2015 and principal photography commenced in August 2016 in the scenic European locales of Prague, Amsterdam, Lisbon and Budapest.
The trailer of the film is attached with Salman Khan's Tubelight - a movie where SRK plays an extended cameo. The trailer hits YouTube on June 23 while the film hits theatres on August 4.
