A kissing sequence in the trailer of “Tiku Weds Sheru,” starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur, drew criticism. The problem stemmed from Nawazuddin’s 49 years and Avneet’s 21 years. Nawazuddin responded to the online anger by saying “Romance is ageless.”
“Why should there be a problem?” Nawazuddin asked IndiaToday.In. Love is timeless. Romance is lacking among the young. We grew up with a different definition of romanticism. We’d be in love and experience ‘ishq’ for years. Because the younger generation can’t do love parts, Shah Rukh Khan keeps doing them. They don’t get romanticism.”
He said, “Today, everything happens on WhatsApp, including love and breakups.” It’s intentional. Romance may be shown by romantics. Who’ll do it?” “Tiku Weds Sheru” follows Mumbai actor Sheru (Nawazuddin) as he struggles to make ends meet. Tiku (Avneet), an aspiring actor, is his family’s bride. Tiku marries because she wants to go from Bhopal to Mumbai and become a Bollywood star. After their marriage, the film chronicles their occurrences.
However, “Tiku Weds Sheru” represents Avneet Kaur’s Bollywood debut. Produced by Kangana Ranaut. Avneet felt emotional and thanked Kangana Ranaut for this chance during the trailer premiere. She said, “This is extremely special to me.” I cried seeing the trailer. It’s my first film, and working with Nawaz Sir and Kangana Ma’am is a big deal. I was honored when Ma’am picked me to portray Tiku. Because I know how much Tiku meant to her, I wanted to prove I could do honor to this character.”
