Love is in the Netflix air again, and this time, it smells like vintage romance dipped in a modern-day touch! Aap Jaisa Koi is here to warm your soul and stir those butterflies, starring the dreamy R. Madhavan and the fierce Fatima Sana Shaikh. With a poster that’s already giving slow-burn chemistry, this one’s not your average rom-com.
Aap Jaisa Koi Poster Hints At A Refreshing Romance – Out On THIS Date
Imagine a Sanskrit teacher with serious “main character energy” and a French proffessor who could set fire to a classroom with just her aura. That’s Madhavan and Fatima in Aap Jaisa Koi! He’s all about quiet charm, and she’s a walking whirlwind. Together? They’re a lesson in unexpected love, and the syllabus includes vulnerability, laughter, and lots of feels.
Madhavan is returning to the genre he owns. From Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein to Tanu Weds Manu, he’s got a PhD in romance, and now he’s bringing all that magic back. This time, with more greys, more grace, and a whole lot of grown-up charm.
Director’s Note
Director Vivek Soni, the man who gave us Meenakshi Sundareshwar, is back at it with another tale that tugs at the heartstrings. His vision? Real love. He shares, “Aap Jaisa Koi is a film about breaking free from the walls we build around ourselves. It’s about embracing the awkwardness and vulnerability of love. Working with Netflix again after Meenakshi Sundareshwar has been a fulfilling experience, and I’m excited to present a love story that’s tender, messy, and intimate, one that embraces vulnerability without losing its charm and breeziness. It quietly questions the roles we fall into in relationships and reflects the quiet courage it takes to truly let someone in. With R. Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh bringing so much heart to their roles, the film reflects the authenticity that Netflix viewers truly connect with. It’s a modern romance that speaks to the need for real connections in today’s world.”
Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director of Original Films, Netflix India, shares , “Aap Jaisa Koi is a romance drama about love that sprouts amidst fallen hopes and gated traditions. With Vivek Soni’s captivating visuals, it boasts beautiful performances by R. Madhavan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ayesha Raza, along with a stellar ensemble. The film attends to the complexities of love with tender strokes. Dharmatic Entertainment, the masters of romance on film, have told this classic tale in a contemporary fashion. It is part of a strong slate of films we’re bringing to Netflix this year, each with a unique voice and perspective.”
Dharma’s Spin On ‘Grown-Up Love’
Dharmatic Entertainment is flipping the script on your typical dreamy love story. It feels so refreshing. Madhavan and Fatima don’t just play lovers; they become two people discovering what love means. He added, “At Dharma, we’ve always believed in the magic of love—but love that evolves, that questions, that unlearns. Aap Jaisa Koi explores what modern relationships look like when people begin to confront their conditioning and redefine what equality and intimacy truly mean. With Madhavan and Fatima bringing warmth and honesty to these characters, and in partnership with Netflix, we’re proud to present a film that’s honest, heartfelt, and deeply human. It’s a story that speaks to a new generation — about love that grows up, not just glows up.”
Aap Jaisa Koi drops July 11 exclusively on Netflix. Whether you’re a sucker for opposites-attract stories or just in the mood for something that makes you cry and smile in the same scene, this one’s your perfect emotional cocktail.
