2 States is a love story between lovers from North and South India based on the novel written by Chetan Bhagat.  As all love stories this too has a tussle from the elders of the family of both the lovers as the poster suggests.

The first poster showed both the lovers and the latest one shows both of them with their respective parents sitting by their sides.  The lovers in question are Arjun Kapoor and Alia Bhat who are also real time lovers as film gossips say. 

Will the movie ring any bells?

Yes for the old timers.  The veteran film director of South K.Balachander made “Maro Charitra” in Tamil and Telugu which was remade in Hindi.  Kamal Haasan played lead role in all these movies.  There the boy Kamal Haasan was from South and heroine Rati Agnihotri was from Northern part of India.  Sarita played the heroine role for Tamil/Telugu. 

Now in 2 States the story is entirely different and also roles are changed.  Boy is from North and girl is from the Southern part of India.  Amrita Singh plays mother of the boy Arjun Kapoor and Revathy plays mother of Alia Bhatt. 

The film directed by Abhishek Yarnan is going to hit screens on April 18 as per schedule of the movie makers.
