MUMBAI: The makers of the 2006 hit ,Pyaar Ke Side Effects, have managed to pull off a casting coup of sorts and have roped in Vidya Balan and Farhan Akhtar for the sequel titled Shaadi Ke Side Effects.

The film is a clever take on fascinating ways love works before and after marriage.

The romantic-comedy will see the actors essaying the role of a married couple who are coping with their issues, much on the comic lines of the first film.

Talking about the plot, producer Pritish Nandy says that “Vidya will be playing a Delhi girl and Farhan a Bombay boy."

The story moves ahead from where Trisha and Sid’s characters (Pyaar Ke Side Effects) left – they get married and the changes that come in their married life, the transformation in their relationship and how they tackle these changes.

“Farhan Akhtar and Vidya Balan are the two most successful actors of 2011. We are privileged to have them as the stars of Shaadi Ke Side-Effects and that is why I think this film tops our calendar for the coming year. My belief is that Shaadi Ke Side-Effects has the ability to be 2012‘s most exciting film, wild, wicked and wonderfully, wonderfully entertaining. Mars VS Venus at its best,” says Nandy.

While the film has an all new star cast, the director Saket Choudhary and music composer Pritam have been retained.
