‘Bala’, which will have actor and poet Ayushmann Khurrana playing the role of a prematurely balding man, was slated to be released on November 22, 2019 its makers announced on Monday.
Producer Dinesh Vijan’s film also stars Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam.
While Bhumi Pednekar plays a dusky small town girl, Yami Gautam will be seen as a supermodel from Lucknow in the quirky comedy.
Gautam believes her part in this year’s hit film ‘Uri – The Surgical Strike’ helped her bag the role in ‘Bala’.
“I think we actors keep shifting our moulds with each film. Every film we do is a projection of who we are and what we are capable of. I have had the fortune of working on some amazing projects and some very challenging roles,” Gautam had said in a statement.
“But I do feel that after ‘Uri’, people have seen me in a whole new light and that is true for all actors. We are perceived as slightly different after each film. And that’s the wonderful part of our job,” she said.
She played an intelligence officer in ‘Uri’.
