Marathi movie ‘Sairat’ created records upon its release. Set against a semi-rural backdrop, the movie was a new take on Shakespeare’s ‘Romeo & Juliet’, and earned much accolades for the perfect portrayal of the innocent romance which blossomed between the protagonists. So when Karan Johar acquired the rights and announced that he would be remaking the same, expectations were bound to be high. And as an icing on the cake, it was revealed that two star kids would be launched in the same; Sridevi’s elder daughter Janhvi Kapoor, and Shahid Kapoor’s younger brother Ishaan Khatter.
And now, the wait is over as the posters of the movie, named ‘Dhadak’ is out. Take a look.

Janhvi is looking effortlessly pretty, with her eyes doing all the talking, while Ishaan has captured the essence of that rustic appeal, amazingly well. The poster brings out the beauty of the timeless tale of ‘Romeo & Juliet’, beautifully.
Well, now all that we wait for, is the trailer of the same. Ishaan and Janhvi surely look promising in the poster, and a glimpse of their acting panache, coupled with a peek of the music of the movie, is what we await, with bated breath. The original ‘Sairat’ was also applauded much for its soundtrack and it is to be seen if ‘Dhadak’ would be able to live up to it.
