The complex movie maker turns romantic. We are talking about National Award-winning filmmaker, Onir . Though he has made romantic films before, his latest flick, ‘ Kuchh Bheege Alfaaz ’, looks like the sweetest romantic film ever. Unlike some old love stories that we have witnessed before, his new film is a modern-day love story in the age of social media, as seen through two primary characters – RJ Alfaaz, played by debutant actor Zain Khan Durrani and meme artist - Archana, played by Geetanjali Thapa . The trailer dropped a few minutes ago and we can see in a world of pings, likes, tweets, shares, and comments, 2 strangers connect over a miss-dial and Whatsapp their way into each other’s hearts, safely hidden behind digital screens. But will the emojis translate to emotions when they reveal their truth to one another –forms the crux of the story. Check out the trailer.

Apart from the leads, the cast also includes Shray Rai Tiwari, Mona Ambegaonkar, Chandrayee Ghosh, Sourav Das, Barun Chanda and Shaheb Bhattacharjee. The film releases on 16th February – on the Valentine’s Day weekend.

On 16th February, ‘ Kuchh Bheege Alfaaz ’ will be clashing with Taapsee Pannu starrer, ‘ Dil Juunglee ’ and Richa Chadha ’s ‘ 3 Storeys ’.
