Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari Trailer Is Pure Bollywood Madness—And We’re Loving It

The trailer for Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is out, and it appears to be the perfect festive season fare. Dharma Productions has once again gone back to the well with a formula we all love, but this time with a fresh, laugh-out-loud spin as nostalgic as it is novel. If you’ve been craving a traditional, masala-filled romantic comedy with a dream cast, this is the movie to keep an eye out for.

Featuring the on-screen couple Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, the Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer transports us to a land of heartbreak, cunning exes, and the wild joy of pretend relationships that might just turn real. Helmed by the blockbuster director Shashank Khaitan, the movie is already shaping up to be the spiritual heir to the beloved Dulhania series. Let’s dissect all that this incredible trailer promises.

What's The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari Story All About?

The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer opens on a familiar scene of love heartbreak. We see Varun Dhawan, playing the genuine but rather melodramatic Sunny, getting into the ruins of a lavish proposal to his beloved Ananya, played by the wonderful Sanya Malhotra. His world comes crashing down when she politely but firmly tells him no. Why? She is already betrothed to another guy.

This is the start of a plot that is straight out of our favorite 90s romantic comedies. Heartbroken and desperate, Sunny discovers that Ananya’s fiancé Rohit Saraf is not only the former boyfriend of Tulsi played by Janhvi Kapoor. Carefree and grappling with a golden opportunity for revenge and redemption, Sunny locates Tulsi and proposes a wicked scheme. Why don’t they pretend to be an obsessed couple in love to make their exes jealous?

Their goal is simple: to sabotage the wedding and win back their respective partners. The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer quickly shows us that their plan involves infiltrating the wedding festivities, which provides the perfect backdrop for the drama, dance, and comedy that follows. It’s a classic premise, but the execution, as seen in the trailer, looks supremely entertaining.

Meet The Characters: Varun’s Sunny vs. Janhvi’s Tulsi

The magic of any rom-com lies in its lead characters, and the Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer gives us a great peek into who these people are. Varun Dhawan seems to be back in his sweet-spot element, playing the charming, boy-next-door ‘Sanskari’ guy. He is emotional, a little over-the-top, and utterly relatable in his pursuit of love.

Janhvi Kapoor’s Tulsi, on the other hand, appears to be quite down-to-earth and quick-witted. She is the perfect foil to Sunny’s melodrama. Both of them bring a certain undeniable chemistry to the table, not just in the romantic moments but especially in their comic timing. Their exchanges and eventual mutual thawing form the heart of the trailer’s narrative.

One of the scenes that has everyone quacking is their side-splitting fight over whether they’re middle-class. Sunny is adamant that making a paltry Rs. 50,000 a month from his dad’s business qualifies him as middle-class. Tulsi counters that she is “more middle-class” based on her own Rs. 25,000. Sunny’s immediate, cheeky retort that she is actually “lower middle-class” is laugh-out-loud hilarious and surprisingly plausible.

The Supporting Cast: Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf Steal the Show as the Exes

A good hero and heroine need deserving rivals, and that’s when Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf come into the picture. The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer does not depict them as villains. Instead, they are the ex’s over whom the top couple has to navigate, making their job all the more difficult and funny.

Sanya, as Ananya, is cool and composed confident in a manner that makes it easy to see why Sunny is head over heels for her. Rohit Saraf, the master of playing the cute boyfriend, is flawless in the role, and presents a believable threat to Sunny’s plans. Their addition increases the stakes and prevents the comedy from becoming one-dimensional.

A Visual Treat: Grand Weddings and Dance Numbers

No Bollywood potboiler is ever complete without some grandeur, and the Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer assures us that there would be no shortage of it. The entire story is set against the grand canvas of a larger-than-life Indian wedding with stunning locations, rich sets, and lovely traditional clothes.

And of course, this means that we can expect some terrific dance numbers. Varun and Janhvi are both excellent dancers, and the trailer offers some manic choreography that will undoubtedly be one of the showstoppers. The music, as one would expect from a Dharma production, appears to be peppy and well-placed into the narrative to enhance the emotional and comic peaks.

Why This Feels Like a Nostalgic Trip to the 90s

For those brought up on a David Dhawan and Sooraj Barjatya diet, the Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer is like the big ol’ hug of nostalgia. The false identities, fake romance, and wedding chaos is a classic 90s plot. The one-liners are full of humor and the sparring is light-hearted and sweet, taking us back to the golden era of Hindi comedy.

It’s a glorious meta moment, too, as the trailer pays a gesture of respect to this heritage. Varun Dhawan’s character is seen reciting a poem inspired by the iconic line from his father David Dhawan’s blockbuster film Raja Babu. This meta moment is sure to leave die-hard Bollywood fans weak in the knees and adds another layer of nostalgic sweetness to the overall endeavor.

The Dulhania Connection: A Spiritual Successor?

Director Shashank Khaitan is no stranger to creating hit new-age romantic comedies. He is the director of hit films Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania, both of which starred Varun Dhawan too. The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer virtually confirms that this new film is set in the same universe.

It has the same amount of down-to-earth romance, family values, and belly-laugh comedy that defined the Dulhania films. Alia Bhatt is missing in this effort, but Janhvi Kapoor seems to have slotted into the shoes so effortlessly, lending her own unique flavor to Dharma narrative. This sense of familiarity is a huge draw for audiences who have been looking for this specific type of genre.

Why You Should Be Excited

The Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari trailer is a big check for all boxes for a perfect weekend entertainer. There’s romance, comedy, drama, dance, and an exceptional cast that appears completely in sync with the film’s milieu. It doesn’t try to do something new but gets on with doing the known thing in impeccable style and wit.

In an era of gritty thrillers and dark dramas, this light, feel-good film is a relief. It promises to treat you to plain, uncut entertainment in the shape of undiluted, unadulterated fun, with your heart laughing, swooning, and even welling up a little.
