Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be next seen in the romantic comedy film Jogira Sara Ra Ra, which is set to release on May 12. Meanwhile, he said, "While my fans love to see me playing dark characters, I enjoy being in the light. And I am confident that this time even they will enjoy the laughs with this oddball couple who are determined to not lose their hearts to each other come what may. It's an original and refreshing subject, like a hawa ka jhonka."

Nawazuddin is reuniting with Babumoshai Bandookbaaz (2017) director Kushan Nandy for the film. Jogira Sara Ra Ra also stars Neha Sharma. The recently released teaser introduces Nawaz as Jogi Pratap whose ‘jugaad’ never fails. We also see Neha as a bride, sitting on a horse. Subsequently, Nawaz is seen running off with a woman on his shoulders. A lot seems to go wrong and Neha eventually tells Nawaz that all his ‘jugaad’ has failed.

The film is produced by Naeem A Siddiqui, with Kiran Shyam Shroff as the creative producer. It also stars Zarina Wahab, Sanjay Mishra and Mahakshay Chakraborty in pivotal roles.
