Bhoomika Chawla and Abhishek Bachchan in RunBoney Kapoor's production, Run, may not have a novel story. The plot revolves around Siddharth (Abhishek Bachchan) madly in love with Jhanavi (Bhoomika Chawla). But the peaceful love story is disrupted by Jhanavi's overprotective brother Ganpat (Mahesh Manjrekar).

We have seen this in Sohail Khan's Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Na, where Arbaaz Khan stood in the way of his sister Kajol and the love of her life, Salman Khan.

But Run has an advantage. Its Tamil version, with the same name, was a blockbuster. The Tamil version starred Madhavan, Meera Jasmine, and Atul Kulkarni. Its cinematographer Jeeva directs the Hindi film.

Run sees the filmi comeback of actress Ayesha Jhulka, She plays Abhishek's sister.

The music has been scored by Himesh Reshammiya and the film is scheduled for a May 14 release.
