Gori Tere Pyaar Mein (transl. Girl... in your love) is a 2013 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film written and directed by Punit Malhotra and produced by Karan Johar under the Dharma Productions banner. The film stars Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan in lead roles, marking their second on-screen collaboration after Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (2012). It also features supporting performances from Anupam Kher, Shraddha Kapoor, and Esha Gupta. Set between urban Bangalore and a rural village in Gujarat, the narrative follows Sriram, a self-centered architect, who attempts to win back his idealistic ex-girlfriend Dia by following her into a remote village where she works on development projects.
The film marked Malhotra’s second directorial venture following I Hate Luv Storys (2010) and was originally envisioned with a different cast before Khan and Kapoor were finalized. Principal photography took place across Bangalore, Mumbai, and several locations in Gujarat, with cinematography by Mahesh Limaye. The music was composed by Vishal–Shekhar, with lyrics by Anvita Dutt and Kumaar.
Released theatrically on 22 November 2013, Gori Tere Pyaar Mein received mixed reviews from critics. While its music, visual aesthetic, and lead performances were appreciated, the screenplay and tonal inconsistencies were subjects of criticism. The film performed below expectations at the box office, grossing an estimated ₹20 crore (US$3.6 million) worldwide.
