Talking about her role and the story, Genelia said in a statement, “I’m at the stage in my career where I choose a film which is about quality more than just quantity. Trial Period when offered to me by director Aleya Sen and Chrome was about a mother and the various relationships a woman goes through at that phase, it’s about a single woman mother finding her love story which is different from college love stories, and this is exactly what excited me to do the role. I’m excited for the film’s premiere on Jio Cinema which has a larger audience and the audience that is appropriate for the film. The Trial Period family has made this film with so much love and we hope our sincere efforts resonate with the audience.
Manav praises the sensitivity with which the story has been told and promises that every character presents a different point of view to the audience.
He said, “Trial Period is all things special! So heartfelt in its treatment, the film is an emotional rollercoaster. Moreover, working alongside such incredibly talented actors and the Chrome Pictures team has been a rewarding journey for me. All of us were personally invested in the film, and every character in it will leave you with a different point of view, therein lies the beauty of Aleya Sen’s capabilities as a director. My mother even penned an emotional note after I completed the film, which was truly overwhelming. As the film prepares to stream exclusively on JioCinema, I’m eagerly looking forward to all the love that’s going to come our way in the future.”

Aleya Sen said in a statement, “Trial Period holds a very special place in my heart. As a filmmaker, I like to explore the unconventional dynamics of human relationships. ‘Father on Rent’ as an idea germinated from the perspective of a no-filter thinking Gen Alpha kid, who makes an unexpected demand, turning his mother’s world upside down. The film has a quirky take on the complexities of imperfect families in today’s society. In addition to the unorthodox pairing of Genelia and Manav, I was excited to work with a great ensemble cast that includes the likes of Gajraj Rao, Shakti Kapoor, Sheeba Chaddha, and last but not the least, Zidane.”
She added, “I am hoping that the film stirs a multitude of emotions amongst its viewers and changes the narrative of the ‘traditional Indian family’. We at Chrome Pictures wholeheartedly welcome the audience to enjoy this family entertainer with their loved ones on JioCinema.”
The film will release on JioCinema on 21 July.
