The Fault In Our Stars Hindi Remake Named as Kizie Aur Manny Starring Sushant Singh Rajput & Rucha further adds, “Kizie & Manny are characters from the imagination of Suprotim Sengupta, who wrote the screenplay and Shashank Khaitan, who gave them wonderful voices through his dialogues. And finally Mukesh Chhabra is going to bring Kizie and Manny to life. We’re looking forward to a great shoot!”

Debutant Director Mukesh Chhabra, who has begun shooting today in Jamshedpur, says, “We are making the film as a beautiful love story which plays out between the two main characters. I have tried to keep it as simple as possible which is why we decided on this title that has a ring of a rhyme, like Bunty aur Babli.”

When asked why they choose Jamshedpur, he says, “Jamshedpur has happily welcomed people from across country and gave them a home there. You have a south indian living next to a Bengali family, while a Parsi and a Bihari could be neighbours. I needed a place with a small town vibe and had heard a lot about Jamshedpur from Imtiaz and R. Madhavan. When I came here for recee, I knew instantly that this was where I wanted my love story to take root.”
