Media mogul Ekta Kapoor is teaming up with Bejoy Nambiar for their upcoming production 'Kuku Mathur Ki Jhand Ho Gayi', a comedy to be set in the by-lanes of Delhi.
The film's quirky title has been chosen through a survey by the youth of Delhi.
"'Kuku Mathur Ki Jhand Ho Gayi' has a quintessential Delhi flavor. While deciding on its title, we took inputs from Delhi students from various colleges.
"We zeroed in on the word 'jhand', which is very popular in the city. The word describes the hilarious crisis situation that the actor is in," Nambiar said in a statement.
It will be directed by newbie filmmaker Aman Sachdeva.
"The film is about a fun, quirky and no-holds barred friendship that turns crazy when competition seeps in," Sachdeva said.
The film features former Miss India Simran Kaur and newcomer Siddharth Gupta in prominent roles.
