Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, bringing cricket to life with real players

MUMBAI : Mr. & Mrs. Mahi starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, promises an authentic cricket experience unlike any other. Here's why: forget actors simply learning to bat and bowl – the filmmakers have taken a groundbreaking approach.

Every single cricketer you see on screen, besides the lead actors, is a real professional!

For scenes featuring Rajkummar Rao's character playing, actual male cricketers from various Mumbai clubs and academies were cast.

Janhvi Kapoor's journey as an aspiring cricketer is further enhanced by real professionals surrounding her on the field. From key bowlers and wicketkeepers to the background fielders, all the women playing cricket are genuine players from across India.

Adding another layer of authenticity is Shubhalaxmi, who portrays the lead bowler in the opposing Punjab team. In a fascinating twist, Shubhalaxmi isn't just an actress – she's a former Indian cricketer herself! The other female cricketers depicted are active players representing various Indian states.

This casting approach ensures the cricket sequences in Mr. & Mrs. Mahi will be a visual delight for fans. With its release set for May 31st, the film promises an immersive and believable cricketing experience for the audience.
