Priyanka And Nick’s Lavish Wedding to Inspire New Film

The film will revolve around a sumptuously extravagant wedding in India and the cultural clashes associated with it. It is slated to be filmed in India and the US. Priyanka Chopra does have some ‘vivacious real life’ experience with extravagant weddings and hence has the potential to bring this to ‘life’ with her ‘reel’ version.

Kaling has already written a miniseries remake of the 1994 comedy Four Weddings And A Funeral, which is expected to be aired on Hulu on 31 July later this year.

Goor said of the project that he was going to work with amazing women despite not knowing how to tuck his shirt in. He does know a bit about Indian weddings, though; he married Indian-American Purvi Shah in 2003.
