Guru Randhawa and Saiee M Manjrekar look refreshingly charming together in the first trailer for their upcoming film “Kuch Khatta Ho Jaay”. Directed by G. Ashok, the romantic comedy focuses on a young couple Heer (Randhawa) and Rani (Manjrekar) dealing with cultural differences after an arranged marriage, much to the disapproval of their orthodox families.

The trailer quickly establishes the premise of two contrasting personalities – Heer is laidback while Rani is driven and career-oriented. Their divergent outlooks lead to plenty of hilarious yet predictable situational gags post matrimony. While some jokes feel cliched, Randhawa and Manjrekar’s vibrant chemistry and natural performances keep you invested.

Veteran actors Anupam Kher and Ila Arun as Rani’s disapproving Tam-Brahm parents add some heft to the supporting cast. They seem primed to be effective comedic foils to the lead pair’s antics. Standard culture-clash humor around food habits, language barriers etc ensue as the couple aims to win over skeptical relatives.

Overall, “Kuch Khatta Ho Jaay” seems positioned as a lighthearted, family-friendly romantic entertainer. Its success will hinge on the appeal and freshness of the lead pairing, supported by situational humor that could have been fresher. Fans of Randhawa and feelgood romantic comedies may still find it an enjoyable Valentine’s season watch. The film opens in theaters on February 16.
