Desi Boyz (Hindi: देसी बोयज़) is an upcoming Hindi action comedy film directed by debutant Rohit Dhawan, son of director David Dhawan.

Premise
Jerry "Rocco" Patel (Akshay Kumar) and Nick "Hunter" Mathur (John Abraham) originally came to the UK to study as overseas students at Oxford University. Some years later, life is good in their comfortable London pad. Nick's got a lucrative investment banking job and a beautiful fiancee, Radhika (Deepika Padukone). Jerry happily sponges off his wealthy pal while bringing up his nephew Veer (Omi Vaidya). But then the recession starts to bite, Nick finds himself abruptly downsized, and social services threaten to place Veer in a foster home. What to do? Why, strip off and earn a living as sexy pole-dancers of course! But under their new alter egos Rocco and Hunter, the two friends now become bitter rivals.

Production
Desi Boyz started filming on 7 November 2010[3], and completed shooting in May 2011. The film was to feature Sonam Kapoor as the lead actress[4], but she declined the film. There were also rumours of the film being offered to Anushka Sharma, but she denied this.[5][6] Eventually, Deepika Padukone and Chitrangda Singh were finalised as the female leads. Padukone will be seen opposite John Abraham for the first time and Singh will star opposite Akshay Kumar in her first commercial venture.[7][8][9]
After short on extras for a scene at "Oxford University", the film used website StarNow.com to recruit extras for filming.[10] The theatrical trailer was released on 23 September 2011, alongside Mausam.[11][12][13]

The film's music is composed by Pritam and lyrics are penned by Irshad Kamil, Kumaar & Amitabh Bhattacharya.
