New Delhi: After much speculation surrounding the role on whom the film’s title is based, Anurag Kashyap reveals Vicky Kaushal as DJ Mohabbat in his directorial ‘Almost Pyaar with DJ Mohabbat’.

This also marks the fourth collaboration between Anurag Kashyap and the actor, who plays a special role and will feature in a never-seen-before avatar in the coming-of-age romantic film.

Talking about Vicky Kaushal’s special role in the film, Anurag Kashyap says, "The character of DJ Mohabbat is so integral to the story, that I wanted someone special to play it. DJ Mohabbat is the voice of love , and is the conduit between two stories and I wanted someone who is that. Someone everyone loves because they trust and believe him. Vicky is that to me since I’ve known him. Always speaks his heart, never forgets, is grateful to his audience and people and the characters he plays. When I asked "if not SRK then who ?”. My whole cast and my daughter and her friends in unison said Vicky Kaushal.”

Vicky Kaushal on essaying the role of DJ Mohabbat says, "Anurag Sir has been a mentor, a friend and in ways he’s been my window into the world of cinema. When he spoke to me about this role I was immediately on board and this special appearance is for a special film, made by my special friend.”

The narrative is about a girl who becomes enamoured with DJ Mohabbat and is set in a small town in India. The trailer shows what the young people think about love. The trailer continues Alaya's love for the DJ before taking a turn when she elopes with a local boy in pursuit of love.

In two different realities that represent the Gen Z love era in both small and large cities, the movie depicts the spirit of desire and romance.
