Anushka Sharma and Varun Dhawan have rolled out the #SuiDhaagaChallenge nominating celebrities to thread a needle ahead of their film’s release.

Sachin Tendulkar, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone too have been nominated for the challenge.
Sui Dhaga, a film by Sharat Kataria of Dum Laga Ke Haisha fame, has Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma playing a married couple setting out to establish a business venture of their own. The film has been produced by Maneesh Sharma under the banner of Yash Raj Films. Dhawan plays ‘Mauiji’, an earnest guy sincere in his actions, but doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. Anushka Sharma’s Mamta is the responsible wife who is also a support system for her husband. Together they set out to establish their own ‘Made in India’ venture.
The film is about finding love and respect through self-reliance. Its plot is inspired by Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy and takes a leaf out of the central government’s Make In India campaign. It’s slated to hit screens on September 28.
