Maddock Films on Wednesday unveiled the motion poster for its upcoming cross-cultural romance Param Sundari and announced a new release date of August 29, 2025. In a collaborative Instagram post, leads Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra teased audiences with glimpses of their characters’ first encounter.
In the motion poster, Sidharth appears as a quintessential North Indian—handsome in a casual shirt, jeans, and a satchel—while Janhvi dazzles in a traditional saree, performing a classical dance pose. The two are shown crossing paths against a scenic backdrop, hinting at a love story where “two worlds collide, and sparks are bound to fly.”
The video closes with the tagline:
“In cinemas worldwide. 29th August 2025. A Maddock Films Production.”
It also reveals that the film’s first single, “Pardesiya,” will drop later today, inviting fans to “feel its soul with the year’s most heartfelt song” within an hour of release.
Originally slated for July 25, the film’s new premiere date positions it as one of the season’s biggest romantic offerings. Param Sundari—shot on location in Kerala’s lush backwaters—centers on the romance between a Northern Delhi boy (Malhotra) and a South Indian girl (Kapoor), promising a rollercoaster of laughter, chaos, and unexpected twists, per Maddock’s official synopsis.
Producer Dinesh Vijan has likened the project to the classic cross-cultural romances of Mani Ratnam, calling it “like taking ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ forward” with a fresh, high-tech spin and south-north dynamic that recalls the emotional intensity of Saathiya and the earthy charm of Kantara. Fans can look forward to the film’s blend of heartfelt drama and vibrant music when Param Sundari hits theatres on August 29.
