Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday unveiled the teaser of its upcoming family entertainer, Hello Charlie. The short clip features Aadar Jain along with a gorilla. Helmed by Pankaj Saraswat and co-produced by Excel Entertainment, Hello Charlie’s storyline revolves around a simple young man (Aadar Jain) who has been assigned the task to transport a gorilla from Mumbai to Diu. The adventures the unlikely duo get embroiled in along the way forms the crux of the plot.In the released clip we see Aadar’s character and the gorilla having a good time listening to songs like “Ambersariya” and Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara’s track “Khaabon Ke Parinday.” A tiny scuffle ensues when the pair cannot decide on the song they both would like to listen to.
