Trailer Talk: Trying Too Hard to Be SRK & Deepika?

Param Sundari trailer scene with Sidharth and Janhvi

Param Sundari trailer has created a buzz as fans eagerly wait for the Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor starrer. After Saiyaara’s blockbuster success, audiences are ready to dive into this new North-South romance. The two-minute forty-second trailer shows Param Sachdev from Delhi and Sundari from Kerala discussing their past romance.

The story follows the classic question of whether the two states will unite. Kerala’s beautiful landscapes form the backdrop, enhancing the trailer’s appeal. Sonu Nigam’s Pardesiya song plays softly in the background, adding to the feel-good atmosphere. Fans have praised the track for lifting the trailer’s mood.

Many reviewers believe the film has all the ingredients to be a blockbuster, especially with the current romance fever among viewers. Yet, some critics feel it borrows heavily from Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s Chennai Express. This makes the film feel more like a franchise sequel than a standalone story.

The trailer is filled with references to other North-South movies and famous South Indian stars like Rajnikanth, Mohanlal, Allu Arjun, and Yash. These nods tend to overshadow the main story of Param and Sundari. Some viewers might watch the film more for nostalgia than the plot itself.

Sidharth Malhotra appears once again as a Delhi boy, but fans seem pleased with his performance and strong screen presence. For Janhvi Kapoor, this movie feels like a return to her maternal roots. Although the trailer did not highlight her acting or comedy skills much, her monologue about South Indian stars has gone viral as a meme.

Param Sundari is set to release on 29 August 2025. Produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and directed by Tushar Jalota, the film is expected to do well and shape the romance and adventure genre for 2025.
