From the local cop to a Haryanvi gujjar boy, to his girlfriend's brother, everybody is smitten by Dream Girl Pooja and her mesmerising voice, leading to a series of unusual, crazy situations. Set against the backdrop of Mathura, Dream Girl is a comedy of errors with an ensemble cast of Annu Kapoor, Vijay Raaz, Abhishek Bannerjee, Manjot Singh, Nidhi Bisht, Rajesh Sharma, Raj Bhansali among others.
Ayushmann Khurrana, who has dubbed in female's voice as well for the movie, said in an interview with mid-day: "I had to deliver 25 per cent of my dialogues in a woman's voice. Since I come from a radio background, it's easier for me to modulate my voice. I have spent years behind the mic, mimicking different people. Raaj had given me the references of a few men, who prank people by talking like a woman. I studied those videos extensively."
Nushrat Bharucha, who also plays a pivotal role in Dream Girl, said in an interview with IANS: "I like this quirky comedy space a lot. Ayushmann is of course really good at picking these kind of films. I am really blessed being part of 'Dream Girl' because that film's script is really funny and quirky."
Annu Kapoor, who was last seen with Ayushmann Khurrana in Vicky Donor seven years ago, shares the screen space with him once again. While Annu Kapoor essayed to the role of a doctor Baldev Chaddha in Vicky Donor, the actor will be playing Ayushmann's father in Dream Girl. Talking about the cast, Manjot Singh, who was last seen in Fukrey 2, will be playing Ayushmann's friend in the film.
