Bollywood can keep doling out action films, but Shahid Kapoor is in the mood for love. After fronting crime thriller Farzi and action fare Bloody Daddy last year, the actor was keen to return to the romantic comedy genre. His wish came true quickly. “I wanted to change things up. I had grown up watching [rom-com] movies, and was missing them. Maybe we weren’t making good ones, maybe the directors who aced them were not as fresh now—I was thinking all these things when I found this script,” he says, referring to Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. The Kapoor and Kriti Sanon-starrer promises to be a breezy story of a guy falling in love with a humanoid robot.
