Directed by Vivek Soni, the film aims to present a contemporary romance that emphasizes the importance of genuine connections in the modern world.
“Aap Jaisa Koi is a story about breaking free from the barriers we create for ourselves. It embraces the awkwardness and vulnerability that love entails. Collaborating with Netflix again after Meenakshi Sundareshwar has been incredibly rewarding, and I am thrilled to share this tender, chaotic, and intimate love story that highlights vulnerability without sacrificing its lightheartedness. It subtly examines the roles we assume in relationships and reflects the quiet courage needed to truly open up to someone. With R Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh infusing their characters with deep emotion, the film embodies a sense of authenticity that resonates with Netflix audiences. It is a modern romance that underscores the necessity for genuine connections in today’s society,” stated Vivek Soni.
The film is being produced under the Dharmatic Entertainments banner and is set to premiere on July 11.
