Arjun Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar, and Rakul Preet Singh Impress in the Hilarious Trailer of Mere Husband Ki Biwi

The much-anticipated trailer of Mere Husband Ki Biwi, directed by Mudassar Aziz, has finally been released, and it promises a refreshing take on comedy. Starring Arjun Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar, and Rakul Preet Singh, the film appears to embrace self-deprecating humor in a way that is both entertaining and bold.

When the movie was first announced with a quirky poster teasing a love circle rather than the conventional love triangle, fans were intrigued. However, many assumed that the storyline would follow a predictable path, with Bhumi playing the wife—similar to her role in Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019)—and Rakul portraying Arjun’s girlfriend. The recently unveiled trailer, however, subverts these expectations within its first 20 seconds.

Spanning three minutes and eleven seconds, the trailer opens with a witty introduction of the lead actors. It acknowledges audience perceptions of Bhumi as a recurring patni on screen, Rakul as the quintessential glamorous lead, and Arjun as an actor often criticized for his expressions. The film cleverly turns these assumptions into comedic gold. The storyline takes an unexpected turn when Bhumi’s character, Arjun’s ex-wife, suffers from retrograde amnesia, causing her to forget that they were ever divorced. This, of course, creates chaos since Arjun is now set to marry Rakul’s character. Adding to the humor, Arjun’s onscreen best friend, played by Harsh Gujral, makes a comical reference to Arjun’s role in Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again (2024), setting the tone for a laughter-filled ride.

The trailer has been met with an overwhelmingly positive response from netizens. Audiences seem particularly impressed with Arjun Kapoor’s performance. One social media user commented, “Finally Arjun is going on the right path,” while another wrote, “First time Arjun Kapoor ki koi movie aachi lag rahi hai.” Many have also appreciated the unique promotional strategy, where the actors playfully roast themselves. A viewer remarked, “Such a unique style to kick off a trailer! The way they mixed the actors’ real lives with the actual trailer is genius. Good strategy! ” Another added, “Whoever came up with that intro deserves a raise! Genius-level stuff. #MereHusbandKiBiwiTrailer is already a winner in my books!”

With its fresh comedic approach and an intriguing plot, Mere Husband Ki Biwi looks promising. The film is set to release in theatres on February 21, and expectations are high for this unconventional love story.
