A Fresh Take on the Franchise

Taurani emphasized that "Ishq Vishk Rebound" is a completely new narrative with modern themes of love, friendship, and relationships. "We had always thought that whenever we take Ishq Vishk as a film franchise ahead, the idea will still be to work with young and fresh talent, including the actors and the director," Taurani explained. The film features Rohit Saraf, who is already popular among the youth and introduces new faces like Pashmina Roshan and Jibraan Khan. It also marks Nipun Avinash Dharmadhikari’s debut in Hindi cinema.

 

Retention of Popular Songs

While the film presents a new story, it retains some nostalgic elements. Taurani mentioned that beloved songs from the original film, such as "Ishq Vishk Pyaar Vyaar" and "Chot Dil Pe Lagi," were included in the new movie. "Songs like Ishq Vishk Pyaar Vyaar and Chot Dil Pe Lagi were so popular that we retained them," Taurani said. However, the film also boasts original tracks such as "Soni Soni," aiming to connect with today’s younger audience. The song is already available on the Tips Official YouTube channel.

 

The Appeal of Youth-Centric Films

Taurani believes that the rom-com-drama genre holds significant appeal for theatre-goers, particularly the youth. He highlighted the role of such films in boosting the popularity of new-generation actors. "Be it Ranbir Kapoor, Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan; they also garnered a lot of love and popularity with films in this genre," he noted. Taurani expressed hope that "Ishq Vishk Rebound" will receive similar support and love from the audience, especially considering the hard work of the young cast.
