Not many know this but Mohit Suri’s next titled ‘Hamari Adhuri Kahani’ was originally titled ‘Tum Hi Ho’. The ace director was searching for an appropriate title for his romance starring Emraan Hashmi and Vidya Balan was suggested ‘Tum Hi Ho’ to be the title. It made sense too for Mohit as he had directed the blockbuster ‘Aashiqui 2’ and ‘Tum Hi Ho’ was the chartbuster song from the film that connected with the entire nation and become a love anthem of the country. However, the director was in two minds as despite the film being a romantic film, it is also about unrequited love. ‘Hamari Adhuri Kahani’ is a film that questions the societal definition of love and raises pertinent questions whether marriage is the only culmination of love.

Mohit says, “Tum Hi Ho was a great title. It was a song that became a rage and it was from a film (Aashiqui 2) that is very close to my heart. But I was in two minds as it was not capturing the entire essence of Hamari Adhuri Kahani. It is so much more that a romantic film. It is a film with so much depth about love. It is during one of our brain storming meetings that Vishesh Bhatt came up with the name Hamari Adhuri Kahani and it was just perfect. Vikram Bhatt had the title registered and he was kind enough to give to to us. This is the story of how we got the title of the film.”

‘Hamari Adhuri Kahani’ also stars Rajkumar Rao in a key role. The film has been produced by Vishesh Films and is being presented by Fox Star Studios. The film is set to release this weekend.
