“Laapataa Ladies” revolves around two brides, Phool (portrayed by Nitanshi Goel) and Pushpa (played by Pratibha Ranta), who accidentally swap places on a train.

The movie, which received positive reviews upon its release on March 1, has garnered approximately 8 crore in global box office earnings, a commendable achievement considering its modest budget.

As reported by ANI, writer Sneha Desai, who penned the screenplay and dialogues of "Laapataa Ladies", said the makers wanted the audience to introspect about social conditioning through the characters of Phool and Pushpa.

“We wanted people to unlearn societal conditioning and learn that things always change for the better. If you have the gumption to take that first step, you are just one step away from the life that you want to live," Desai said.

"Characters like Phool and Pushpa, who are victims of the situation of their upbringing, or the strata in which they live, if they can have the audacity to dream and aspire for a life, all of us are way too privileged to be complaining. So, going for your dreams is what we wanted (to talk about)" the screenwriter added.
