In January 2023, the romantic comedy starring Lily James, Sajal Aly, and Emma Thompson will be released.
‘What’s Love Got To Do With It?’ by Jemima Khan is already gaining popularity. We can’t wait to see the romantic comedy starring Emma Thompson, Shahzad Latif, Sajal Aly, and Lily James after it received the Best Comedy prize at the Rome Film Festival on Saturday.
The award-winning film’s co-producer and writer, Khan, shared a photo of herself holding the trophy on Instagram to commemorate the accomplishment. “I wrote and produced our picture, which won (the medal) for Best Comedy at The Rome Film Festival,” she stated. Khan looked stunning in an exquisite off-white trouser suit, complete with her trademark nude lip and open hair in a thick blowout.
She thanked everyone who helped her win the award, starting with her mentor, British director Ol Parker, for teaching her screenplay, with humility. I appreciate Ol Parker teaching me how to create a script, she said.
The What’s Love Got to Do With It cast and crew came next on the list. She thanked Lily James, Asim, Shahzad Latif, Jeff Mirza, Shabana Azmi, and Sajal Aly for the laughs. She also expressed her gratitude to the producers, distributors, and particularly Indian director Shekar Kapur for his guidance.
Celebrities, including our own award-winning filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy, were applauding in the comments area. In addition, Fatima Bhutto congratulated Khan. As many congratulated her, the Mom actor ‘Sajal Aly’ also reposted the exciting news on her Instagram.
The multiethnic British movie had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival earlier this year. The bubbly romantic comedy, according to TIFF, centres on a filmmaker who decides to accompany her best friend as she heads toward an arranged marriage. The movie veers between London and Lahore, friendship and love, tradition and iconoclasm, and it defies simple categorization.
What’s Love Got To Do With It?, according to The Hollywood Reporter (THR). serves as a “master class in how to stick closely to the traditional romantic comedy pattern and yet yet come out with something that delivers deliciously on both sides of the hyphen.”
The publication went on to say that although Kapur, who was previously known for his work on Elizabeth and Banquet Arena, has added a soulful touch, the cross-cultural confection may not be the first to examine the practise of arranged marriage in the age of Tinder, the movie hits all the right notes as a result.
What’s Love Got To Do With It? The planned release date is January 27, 2023.
