After much speculation surrounding the role on whom the film’s title is based, Anurag Kashyap finally revealed that Vicky Kaushal is the DJ Mohabbat in his directorial ‘Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat’.

The film marked the fourth collaboration between Anurag Kashyap and the actor, who played a special role and will feature in a never-seen-before avatar in the coming-of-age romantic film.

Talking about Vicky Kaushal’s special role in the film, Anurag Kashyap shared, “The character of DJ Mohabbat is so integral to the story, that I wanted someone special to play it. DJ Mohabbat is the voice of love and is the conduit between two stories and I wanted someone who is that. Someone everyone loves because they trust and believe him. Vicky is that to me since I’ve known him. Always speaks his heart, never forgets, is grateful to his audience and people and the characters he plays. When I asked ‘if not SRK then who?’. My whole cast and my daughter and her friends in unison said Vicky Kaushal.”

Vicky Kaushal aka DJ Mohabbat shared, “Anurag Sir has been a mentor, a friend and in ways he’s been my window into the world of cinema. When he spoke to me about this role, I was immediately on board and this special appearance is for a special film, made by my special friend.”

‘Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat,’ starring Alaya F and debutant Karan Mehta, is touted to be Anurag Kashyap’s ode to modern love. Presented by Zee Studios under Good Bad Films Production, the film is slated to release on February 3, 2023.
