Get ready to feel all the feels — Netflix has dropped the official announcement for Aap Jaisa Koi, an emotionally resonant romantic drama set to stream from July 11, starring R. Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh in the lead roles. Directed by Vivek Soni (Meenakshi Sundareshwar) and produced under Karan Johar’s Dharmatic Entertainment, the film promises a modern love story that’s as thoughtful as it is moving.
Madhavan plays Shrirenu Tripathi, a mild-mannered Sanskrit professor raised in a deeply conservative, patriarchal household in Jamshedpur, where tradition reigns and a woman drinking at the dinner table is still met with gasps. Enter Madhu Bose (Fatima Sana Shaikh), a bold, progressive woman from an independent-minded Bengali family. She’s sharp, outspoken, and refuses to conform — especially when it comes to outdated expectations about a woman’s role in love and life.
As Shrirenu and Madhu’s worlds collide, so do their ideologies, forcing them — and their families — to confront deeply rooted gender roles and emotional boundaries. What begins as a romance becomes a layered exploration of masculinity, vulnerability, companionship, and breaking free from generational norms.
With a stellar supporting cast including Manish Chaudhary, Ayesha Raza Mishra, Namit Das, and Beena Banerjee, Aap Jaisa Koi is poised to be a touching, conversation-starting film. Netflix teases a heartfelt, challenging narrative that redefines what love can look like when two very different people choose to grow together — rather than change each other.
Mark your calendars for July 11 — this one’s going to stir both your heart and your mind.
