After "Stree", director Amar Kaushik's next film "Bala" is also set in a small town and revolves around a prematurely balding man and a woman facing prejudice because of her skin colour.

"Bala", features Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar.

"Our film is set in Kanpur. I come from small town and I develop characters from reality, the situations are from real life," Kaushik told PTI.

"Bala" marks the third outing for Ayushmann and Bhumi, who have previously worked in "Dum Laga Ke Haisha" and "Shubh Mangal Saavdhan".

"We felt Ayushmann and Bhumi were apt for this film. They have worked together on two films that highlighted social issues, taboo. Having them with us we are hopeful there will be a connect People love to see such stories," Kaushik said.

"Dinesh Vijan (producer) had the idea and I was working on the film as a creative-director but later I got attached to it and felt I should direct it."
