Avneet Kaur shared, “This is very special to me. I was just crying while watching the trailer. Just to say that, it’s my debut, and getting to do my first film with Nawaz sir and Kangana ma’am, is extremely big for me. When I got to know about this project, and when ma’am chose me as her Tiku, that was so special for me. I just wanted to prove, that I can and I will do justice to this character, because I know, Tiku is so close to her heart. The story is so close to her heart.”

She continued, “I have to say that, I was extremely nervous about sharing screen space with Nawazuddin Siddiqui. I still have that nervous. All I have to say is, thanks to Kangana ma’am and Nawaz Sir for choosing me and for giving me this opportunity. I have really done a lot of hard work. She treated me like her own and she was there in each and every scene. I have rehearsed each and every scene with ma’am and Sir.”

Tiku Weds Sheru follows the journey of two eccentric and starry-eyed characters - a dreamer Tiku (Avneet) and a hustler Sheru (Nawazuddin). The trailer showcases the ups and downs in the lives of this unconventional couple, a junior artist and an aspiring actor, who begin their mad-cap journey as they hustle together to achieve their ambitions in the city of dreams, Mumbai. What started as the coming together of an unusual jodi, becomes the marriage of two souls.

Tiku Weds Sheru will premiere on June 23.
