Nagesh Kukunoor may not have made brilliant cinema he's known to make in his latest works (8X10 Tasveer, Bombay To Bangkok) but the director isn't done with films yet.

He recently launched the trailer of his latest movie, Mod, which is a suspense love story. The film stars Ayesha Takia and MTV veejay Rannvijay.

''Mod is my first love story," Kukunoor said at the launch in Cinemax, Versova, a suburb in Mumbai. "I had always said I would never make a love story but here I found something worth telling."

Mod is a love story between two unlikely people, set in the backdrop of a small hill station.

"I usually like to set my stories in these little towns, a kind of Utopian India where everyone is nice and everything is fine," Kukunoor explained.

Mod is the official remake of a Taiwanese film called Keeping Watch.

In the film, Ayesha runs a small clock-repairing shop. She meets a stranger Rannvijay, who comes to the shop daily to repair his wristwatch. A romance starts, which leads to a dramatic turn of events.

"Mod returns to the space I dealt with and enjoyed a lot of success with, like Dor," Kukunoor said. "Not only are they three-letter words but I'm using the same tag line as well: How far can you go to save your love."

Ayesha, who was last seen in the 2009 blockbuster Wanted, makes a comeback to the movies with Mod.

"I didn't want to do films just for the sake of acting," she said. "I needed a break as I was busy with my married life. My husband Farhan Azmi is a restaurateur and I was learning and understanding the business."

VJ Rannvijay, who will play the first lead role in his life, seemed excited. "This is my first film as a lead actor. I remember I was shooting for Roadies when I got a message from Nagesh saying that he wanted to audition me for this film. I jumped at the opportunity and landed up doing the film. It is a tough role."

Tanvi Azmi, Raghubir Yadav and Anant Mahadevan form the rest of the cast. Mod is set to release on September 30.

i love Nagesh's movies.

though i think this one will also bomb, as the male lead is the mahogany among the wooden planks 🤢

^^ Ditto.
And I actually liked 8X10 Tasveer.

i love ranvijay when he is hosting..but unfortunately none of his film worked so far. he is much more interesting in real life than acting. still looking forward to this one..

Ayesha Takia has not been so great in any of her movies..
she has always played quite a different roles in all her movies..
her last film Dor was also not so great on bollywood hope that Mod would be nice for the audiences to watch her...
