The teaser for Habib Faisal's Dawaat-e-Ishq looks quite delectable. The lead pair of the film Aditya Roy Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra is seen trying out jalebis against a background at a splash of colours. At first look, the film promises to be a love story with food playing an intrinsic part in the story line.
A deliciously romantic coming together of Gulrez “Gullu” Qadir (Parineeti Chopra) a Hyderabadi shoe-sales girl disillusioned with love because of her encounters with dowry-seeking men; and Tariq “Taru” Haidar (Aditya Roy Kapoor) a Lucknawi cook who can charm anybody with the aroma and flavours of his biryani and kebabs.
In the clash of diametrically opposite but equally spicy cultures of Hyderabad and Lucknow, Gullu and Taru arrive at a “tuning-setting”, rewrite traditional recipes of love, crush sold-fashioned world-view and make their own masaledaar albeli rangreli pichchar... Daawat-e-Ishq!
Produced by Aditya Chopra, the film is written and directed by Habib Faisal, the music is by Sajid-Wajid and lyrics by Kausar Munir.
Daawat-e-Ishq also features Anupam Kher in pivotal role and marks the Bollywood debut of TV actor, Karan Wahi.
