While Salman Khan helped Govinda out with all the much needed love advice in Partner, Chi Chi is doing the very opposite in this film. He plays a divorce lawyer in the film, who doesn't believe in the institution of marriage. The movie also stars Tusshar Kapoor, Prachi Desai, Fardeen Khan and Genelia D'Souza. 
Produced by Abbas-Mustan, the film is a fun entertainer, which has Govinda, Fardeen Khan and Tusshar Kapoor playing thick friends but the trio have distinct views about the institution of marriage. While Tusshar plays someone who is a believer in arranged marriage, Fardeen’s character is far more flamboyant. For him, being in love matters most and all he wants is a love marriage. As for Govinda he plays a pivotal fun character in the film who is a Casanova of sorts and doesn’t believe in marriage at all.
“What you would see in Life Partner is something that happens to every husband and wife. My character is very conservative and traditional and believes in arranged marriage. It is about how he gets married and deals with married life. All the ups and downs in his life and relationships have been presented in an entertaining way,” Tusshar told StarBoxOffice.
In the film, Tusshar Kapoor plays a Gujarati based in South Africa while Prachi Desai plays his Gujarati wife who originally comes from India. Genelia D’Souza is paired opposite Fardeen Khan while there is a surprise element around the name being paired opposite Govinda.
Extensively shot in South Africa, Life Partner is slated to release on August 14, 2009
