Chirag hai pyar ki खोज में, Bitti apni hi सोच में aur Pritam Vidrohi in a saree bina पेटी-कोट में.

In the poster, Rajkummar Rao is seen wearing a saree flanked by Kriti and Ayushmann who are visibly surprised by seeing him in this attire.

The story behind Rajkummar Rao being draped in a saree was shared by the actor himself. He said, “When Nitesh sir narrated me the script and when Ashwini told me about the story, I was damn excited. I felt that this character is quite special and unique. To show these two personality traits in one film, it was something I did not think of doing earlier.”

Bareilly Ki Barfi revolves around three individuals, Chirag, Pritam, and Bitti played by Ayushmann Khurrana, Rajkummar, and Kriti Sanon. Ayushmann is a printing press owner whereas Rajkummar is working in the printing press under him. Kriti Sanon is the female lead donning the role of a young contemporary Uttar Pradesh girl.
