Anees Bazmee saw in Asin the perfect girl for the role of Pooja, a girl who meets Chandu, originally played by Ram, at her own wedding, escapes with him, and moves into his house. "The role requires a 'chulbuli', vivacious, talkative and agile girl. Asin was the natural choice," Bazmee told reporters.

The film tells the story of Chandu, a student in engineering at Bellar University. After helping his cousin escape with the man she loves, he is thrown out of his father's home and goes back to live on campus. When one of his friends falls in love with a girl, the girl's father tries to force her to marry someone else.

Chandu's friend asks him for his help, and he decides to save the girl on the day of her wedding. However, once he gets there Chandu finds the wrong girl and helps Pooja elope instead! And that is how their adventurous love story begins.

Ready producer Bhushan Kumar told reporters: "It's been great fun working with Salman. We share a great friendship, not to mention a fantastic working equation. It's overwhelming to see his commitment toward the movie. He is a thorough professional and is always there with interesting inputs wherever need be."

"I was always looking for a script which has everything and I found that in Ready. The film has lots of humor, there are 2-3 action sequences which Salman fans will love, there are a lot of dramatic sequences, and we also have good scope for music. In short it's a total masala entertainer with proper story and screenplay," Kumar added. Ready is ready to hit theaters on June 3.
