Going from strength to strength with every film, Yami Gautam is set to try her hand at a role she hasn't given a go at, until now. Exploring the romantic comedy genre with Ginny Weds Sunny, Gautam will play a true blue Delhi girl in a character that hasn't been defined by the clichés attached with women belonging to the northern city.

"The romantic comedies made in the industry are few. The ones I remember are Hum Tum (2004) and Love Aaj Kal (2009)," says Gautam when prodded about her decision to dabble in the genre. Gautam plays the daughter of a matchmaker, who finds life-partners for others but fails to find one for her daughter. "The mother finally plays a matchmaker to my Ginny and Vikrant's [Massey] Sunny. The film tries to explore modern relationships, in which the understanding of love sinks in late. It explores how love has become almost cosmetic today."
