Hungama 2: Meezaan Jaffrey finds his Leading Lady for Priyadarshan’s Comedy!

The 2003 Priyadarshan film, Hungama, continues to be a gem in the archives of comedy-drama films. With Paresh Rawal, Aftab Shivdasani, Akshaye Khanna and Rimi Sen in the lead roles, the film still manages to tickle your funny bones even today.

And, after 16 years, Priyadarshan is set to command the second installment, Hungama 2, and this piece of exciting news has come as a delight to all fans. Adding to the excitement, the lead cast of the film has also been finalized and signed, which will further add to the growing anticipation around the film.

There was already buzz that Javed Jaffery’s son, Meezan Jaffery has been roped in as the main lead. And, now the Malaal actor has found his leading lady in Pranitha Subhash, a prolific Bangalore-born actress who has done several films in Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada.

Interestingly, Pranitha Subhash will mark her Hindi debut opposite Ajay Devgn in Bhuj: The Pride Of India. Priyadarshan confirms the news as saying, “The minute she walked in for the audition I knew she was the one. I’ve signed Pranitha for Hungama 2 with Meezan Jaffrey. I am very happy with my casting. The pair is fresh and excited about working in my film. They don’t have the jaded seen-it-all attitude of some established stars. Not yet.”

Meezaan too expressed his excitement of working with Priyadarshan for Hungama 2.
