Band Baaja Baaraat (English: Band Music and Revelry; released internationally as Wedding Planners) is a 2010 Bollywood romantic comedy directed by debutant Maneesh Sharma and stars Anushka Sharma with newcomer Ranveer Singh in the lead roles. Produced and distributed by Yash Raj Films, the film is a love story set in the world of wedding planning. It was released worldwide on 10 December 2010.
The film was a critical and commercial success despite initial competition from No Problem and Tees Maar Khan. It became popular for its fresh subject and screenplay and turned out to be one of the most awarded movies that year. A Tamil/Telugu remake titled Aaha Kalyanam also produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner, starring Nani and Vaani Kapoor in the lead roles was released on 21 February 2014. It was unofficially remade in Telugu in 2013 titled as Jabardasth, directed by Nandini Reddy.
Bittoo Sharma (Ranveer Singh) is street-smart and fun-loving. He gatecrashes a wedding for the free food, and Shruti Kakkar (Anushka Sharma), an intelligent and quirky girl who is assisting the wedding coordinator, confronts him. Bittoo pretends that he is part of the film crew and makes a video of Shruti's performance when he sees her dancing at the wedding. The next day, he tries to impress Shruti with a DVD he compiled of her dance at the wedding. Shruti is not interested in flirting and reveals that her main interest is starting her own business and becoming a wedding planner.
