After Indore, next on the radar to get its first taste of Akshay Kumar and Ashvini Yardi’s Grazing Goat Pictures upcoming film ‘Fugly’ was Textile City, Ahmedabad.
The star cast - Mohit Marwah, Vijender Singh, Kiara Advani
and Arfi Lamba - commenced their journey with a Press Conference at the Eastin
Hotel in Ahmedabad where they addressed the local media and shared their
experiences and memories from Fugly and why the fans should watch the film.
Post the Press Conference, the stars treated themselves to
some traditional Gujarati delicacies at Govardhan Thal in the city centre where
they were greeted by the hospitable staff and a few enthusiastic fans.
This was then followed with a last minute surprise visit to
a Vacation Expo at the famous GMCD grounds. Vijender Singh seemed particularly
excited about the visit due to his love for sports. The stars treated the crowd
at the Expo to an impromptu jig on the title song, Yeh Fugly Fugly Kya Hai, which
received a great roar from the onlookers! The surprise element was when the
star cast broke into the traditional Garba routine which was greatly
appreciated by all the people gathered at the venue.
The stars concluded their visit to the city with a quick
tour to the local market where they tried out the traditional out fits amidst
fans that were anxious to get a glimpse of their favourite stars. Kiara, Mohit,
Vijender and Arfi interacted with the fans and seemed overwhelmed with the warm
reception from the city on the whole.
‘Fugly’, directed by Kabir Sadanand, is shot extensively in
Delhi and the breath-taking locations of Leh. It is a story of four friends:
Dev, Devi, Gaurav and Aditya and how this carefree bunch, at the threshold of
their lives, get caught in a ‘Fugly’ incident, which sucks them slowly into the
big bad world of corruption, politics and the real society in the capital. The
entertainingly original Fugly is wacky, kitsch and puts the best of friends
through the most bizarre events of their life - the game is FUGLY!
Fugly is also the launch pad for Mohit Marwah, Olympic
medalist Boxer Vijender Singh, Kiara Advani and Arfi Lamba, the freshest faces
to join the film fraternity. They will be making their debut in style along
with the supremely talented Jimmy Sheirgill, who will be seen in one of his
most powerful performances ever.
