Mumbai: Comedy has always been a big hit in the Bollywood and this time it is Dil Kabaddi which is on its way to theatre to bring some humour for its audiences. For the first time in this film, Irrfan Khan and Soha Ali Khan have played the role of a married couple.

A light-hearted comedy about urban relationships, Dil Kabaddi promises to take a humorous look at post-marital boredom, say the stars of this forthcoming film.

While Irrfan Khan has been paired with Soha Ali Khan here, Rahul Bose and Konkona Sen Sharma play the second couple.

In the film, both married men are tempted to have affairs just to add some excitement in their dull lives. Irrfan, who plays a banker in the film, says he agreed to be in the film because he sensed a fresh approach in the writing.

“For me more than the character, the film was important. I whole take on metro relationships was so interesting that I said that I have to say yes to it. I was first offered the character who is a professor who falls in love with his student but Rahul showed more interest in that character so I did a different role,” says actor Irrfan Khan.

Soha Ali Khan has been cast in Dil Kabaddi as a cosmetic surgeon with a compulsive cleanliness disorder, is excited about the varied palette of projects she has lined up in the pipeline.

"I am really excited about the next film I am doing as it is a love story because I haven’t done anything like that. I am personally excited about the horror film I am doing. I am playing a sort of a supernatural kind of character who does yoga but in terms of profession perhaps i would like to do a legal drama that would be interesting,” says excited Soha.

The film which is slated for release on the December 5, is hoping to woo the same audiences who appreciated such other ensemble dramas as Metro and although Dil Kabaddi may be different in tone, it's similar in its spirit and its intention, say the makers.
