Plot

Mauji (Varun Dhawan), a young man, has inconvenient work and individual life. His boss treats him like a dog, his father never stops cursing him, and he has not even touched his wife Mamta's (Anushka Sharma) hand despite being married for years due to lack of space at home. But he always carries himself with a big smile despite facing odds.

Although he appears to be a useless man, Mauji is a champion in the art of tailoring, which his father (Raghuvir Yadav) believes to be a disadvantageous mode of occupation. However, being fed-up of licking his boss' boots and getting motivation from Mamta, Mauji decides to self-employ himself and sets off with his sewing machine. Although his parents are strictly against his decision, Mauji receives constant support from his wife, and in no time, the couple sees positive results. The couple faces a lot of hardships due to their innocence and family responsibilities. Mauji and Mamta fight back.Finally they succeed.

Development

The project was announced in July 2017.[9] After initial talks with Ranbir Kapoor fell through, Dhawan was approached for the lead role, with Anushka Sharma playing the female lead.[10] The duo posted riddles related to the theme of the film on their social media handles, and confirmed it soon after that.[9] Sharat Katariya, who had earlier made the romantic comedy Dum Laga Ke Haisha (2015), was roped in to direct the film, with Maneesh Sharma producing it under the Yash Raj Films banner.[9] Anushka Sharma and Maneesh Sharma had previously worked on the latter's debut film Band Baaja Baaraat (2010) and Ladies vs Ricky Bahl (2011).

According to sources, the film was based on the Make in India campaign launched by the Indian government in 2014,[11] which was aimed at promoting the country's indigenous textile industries.[7] Maneesh Sharma called it "[..] a heartwarming story of pride and self-reliance." He further added, "This story finds its roots in the heart of India and reflects the passion that runs through the veins of every single Indian."[9]

It was initially speculated that Dhawan would play the role of a labourer in the film.[12] Later it was reported that he would play a tailor, and Anushka Sharma an embroiderer.[7] Dhawan described his character to be both a tailor and a peon, and stated that it had been inspired by the Tinkle comic character Suppandi.[13] Both the actors learnt how to sew and embroider, and also operate the sewing machine.[7][14][15]

Filming continued in the same month in Bhopal, and moved on to Delhi & Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh.[20][21] The second schedule was completed in April 2018.[22]

Marketing and release

Prior to beginning filming, a short clip paying tribute to Mahatma Gandhi, and featuring Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma was released on the occasion of his 150th birth anniversary.[5] A still which depicted the lead pair as a small town couple was released shortly after filming had begun.[4] During a Twitter interaction with Fans, Dhawan announced that the trailer will be released in August 2018.[25] On August 13th Yash Raj Films released the trailer of the film on YouTube.[26] Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma were seen promoting their movie in a new promotional activity called Sui Dhaaga Challenge where the actors are nominating colleagues to take up the challenge and share videos of themselves threading a needle on social media.[27]
