What is Picture This about?
“Single and without a man on the horizon, Pia runs a failing photography studio in London with her best friend Jay,” reads the synopsis (via Deadline). “As her sister Sonal prepares to get married and her mother Laxmi urges the resolutely independent Pia to partner up, a spiritual guru at Sonal’s engagement party predicts Pia will meet the love of her life among the next five dates she goes on. As her family intervene, setting her up on a series of increasingly desperate blind dates, Pia begins a hilarious but heartfelt quest for real love.”
Picture This is directed by Prarthana Mohan from a screenplay written by Nikita Lalwani, based on the recent Australian movie Five Blind Dates. The film is produced by Ben Pugh and Erica Steinberg, with Josh Horsfield and Kari Hatfield executive producing.
