Exploring Real-Life Couples with Significant Age Differences: A Perspective on Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur’s On-Screen Kiss
The romantic comedy-drama film ‘Tiku Weds Sheru’, featuring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur in the lead roles, has been generating immense praise from audiences since the release of its trailer. Backed by Kangana Ranaut’s Manikarnika Films, the movie has captured attention with its unique and engaging storyline, as well as the fresh pairing of the lead actors, making it a promising venture.
While the film has been receiving support from audiences, it has also been the subject of discussion among a certain segment of viewers regarding the on-screen kiss between the 49-year-old actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui and the 21-year-old actress Avneet Kaur. However, this discourse seems irrelevant considering the existence of real-life couples with significant age differences, which is a challenging yet widely accepted norm. Cinema often reflects societal realities.
Speaking of real-life couples, we have recently witnessed examples such as 83-year-old Hollywood actor Al Pacino and his 29-year-old partner Noor Alfallah welcoming their newborn child. There are also other notable Hollywood couples, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Neelam Gill (48-28), Al Pacino and Noor Alfallah (83-29), Nicolas Cage and Riko Shibata (59-28), and George Clooney and Amal Clooney (62-45), who have successful relationships despite their age differences.
In India as well, there are numerous instances of unconventional pairings with significant age gaps, further proving that age is not a decisive factor in relationships. Such relationships have been prevalent throughout history.
‘Tiku Weds Sheru’ adds an element of entertainment with its fictional characters and narrative. The film revolves around a struggling actor portrayed by Nawazuddin Siddiqui and an aspiring actress played by Avneet Kaur. The on-screen kiss between them is simply a representation of love in the context of the story.
Directed by Sai Kabir Srivastav and produced by Kangana Ranaut under the banner of Manikarnika Films, ‘Tiku Weds Sheru’ is set to premiere exclusively on Prime Video on June 23, 2023.
