Rakul Preet Singh will be soon seen essaying a never-seen-before character in Ronnie Screwvala's upcoming production titled 'Chhatriwali'. The film's first look was recently released on social media as it went on the floors in Lucknow. 'Chhatriwali' is a social family entertainer and tells the story of a female unemployed chemistry graduate in the small town of Karnal, who becomes a condom tester out of desperation for a job. Taking to her Instagram handle, Rakul shared two photos of her look from the film. In the first, she was seen holding a condom pack in front of her face in formal attire. In the second photo, we could see Rakul clad in yellow ethnic wear with a smile on her face. Sharing the first look, Rakul wrote, "Bin mausam barsaat kabhi bhi ho sakti hai…Apni chhatri taiyaar rakhiye! Presenting the first look of #Chhatriwali."
Talking about the film, director Tejas Deoskar shared, "Our film is a social family entertainer, which aims at de-stigmatising the use of condoms and we are truly excited that the film has gone on floors. Rakul brings freshness to every role that she portrays and with a sensitive, thought provoking subject like this, the audience will certainly enjoy a roller-coaster ride of comedy." Sharing her excitement Rakul Preet Singh said, "It's quite an interesting and 'hatke' (different) subject and I am very thrilled about starting the journey of my character. It's important to highlight some issues in a light-hearted way and that has got me pretty excited."Apart from this, Rakul recently wrapped the shooting of Jackky Bhagnani’s production film with Akshay Kumar.
