Actors Avinash Tiwary and Medha Shankr will soon be seen together in a romantic-pairing in the upcoming film Ginny Wedss Sunny 2. Now, ahead of the release, Avinash, as per a press note, has revealed that he wanted to work with Medha since he saw 12th Fail, the Vidhu Vinod Chopra directorial which marked the debut for the latter. Her performance in the film was also appreciated.

“I saw 12th Fail and I was like, I want to work with this girl. And nearly 15 days after saying this, I received an offer for a film. We were almost supposed to do that film, but it couldn’t be made. We had met for the first time then. Then this film came (Ginny Wedss Sunny 2). The script was indeed exciting, but by the time I realized that the film would star Medha Shankr, I went all in,” he said.

Revealing that it was Medha who broke the ice on the set, Avinash shared, “She was a new person on-set, newer than I am in films. She was so comfortable that she made me comfortable. We say it’s effortless, but you see someone taking efforts, that is really comforting.”

Directed by Prasshant Jha, Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 is a spiritual sequel of the 2020 film Ginny Weds Sunny which starred Vikrant Massey and Yami Gautam. The film is scheduled to release on April 24.
