Abhishek Bachchan is set to play the lead in Remo D’Souza’s next, Be Happy, where he meets child artist Inayat Verma, who was seen in Ludo. The trailer of the film, which was released on Monday, features Abhishek as a single father who goes on an emotional journey to make his daughter’s dreams come true. The narrative is about a young girl with dreams of dancing, and once convinced, she gets her father, played by Abhishek, to approve of her—a man who hardly dances himself.
What adds to the challenge of the journey is the fact that the father needs to learn how to dance in a bid to accompany his daughter to a national dance reality show. As the father-daughter duo collaborate, the relationship between them becomes stronger, and the film promises to provide new chemistry between Abhishek Bachchan and Nora Fatehi, who will be playing the female lead.
A Fresh Dynamic with Nora Fatehi
The trailer has evoked positive response from the audience, especially the new chemistry of Abhishek and Nora Fatehi. The dance-drama will delve into the extreme ways a father can go for his child, along with the threads of love, determination, and chasing happiness. The description of the film is, “A dance-drama movie about a single father and his sassy, wise-beyond-her-years daughter. When his daughter’s aspiration of dancing in the nation’s largest dance reality show meets a life-changing crisis, the father finds himself compelled to do the unthinkable, highlighting the extraordinary measures he will take to grant her desires and bring happiness to her life.”
A Revived Project
Be Happy was previously known as Dancing Dad and featured Salman Khan, Daisy Shah, and Jacqueline Fernandez. Yet the film got pushed due to shooting dates being clashed with for Race 3. Years went by before Remo D’Souza restarted the project and added Abhishek Bachchan and Nora Fatehi, together with Inayat Verma, to give a new face to this inspiring story. People are already hyped about this heartwarming film, with Abhishek sharing the trailer link on X and writing, “Sometimes it takes two to achieve a dream.”
