Shekhar Kapur’s upcoming romcom, What’s Love Got to Do With It? is set to hit the screens on January 27, 2023.
Set between London and South Asia, What’s Love Got To Do With It? features Emma Thompson, Lily James, Shazad Latif and veteran Indian actor Shabana Azmi among others.
In a social media post, Shekar wrote, “27th January 2023…hitting cinema’s worldwide…a film that critics are hailing as one that ‘redefines the genre of a rom com’. A film that really does explore what Love and Relationships mean to us, and why we need them, yet fear them…”
Written and produced by Jemima Khan, What’s Love Got to Do With It? marks Shekhar Kapur’s first feature film since Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007).
Incidentally, this project also marks Shekhar Kapur’s first collaboration with Shabana Azmi since the filmmaker’s 1983 seminal work, Masoom.
