"Dum Laga Ke Haisha" is a 2015 Indian Hindi-language comedy film directed by Sanjay Chhel and produced by Sajid Samji. The movie stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Ashima Chibber. It tells the story of a young man who becomes a donkey cart driver to repay a debt and falls in love with a local girl. The film received mixed reviews but was appreciated for its unique storyline.

What follows is not a typical fairy tale, but a grounded, hilarious, and emotional journey of two completely incompatible people learning to accept one another. The climax features a uniquely Indian twist—a "wife-carrying" race through the winding streets and uneven terrain of Haridwar, symbolizing Prem’s journey to embrace his wife and shed his insecurities.
