After lots of speculations about the movie being shelved,Gauri Shinde’s upcoming film starring Alia Bhatt and Shah Rukh Khan has begun
shooting from Wednesday, January 20.
Karan Johar, who is co-producing the film, took to Twitter
to share his excitement about the yet untitled film. “And @gauris journey with
@aliaa08 and @iamsrk begins today!! Really excited!!!” he wrote on the
micro-blogging site.
Lead actress Alia who will be sharing screen space with Shah
Rukh for the first time also expressed her happiness on her Twitter page. The ‘Highway’
actress tweeted, “And a beautiful new journey begins!!!! Day one today for
Gauris film.. Wish me luckkkk @iamsrk @karanjohar @gauris.”
Sometime back, there were rumours that the film might get
shelved due to creative differences between the ‘English Vinglish’ director and
Karan. However, the Dharma Productions honcho cleared the airs and stated that
the principal photography of the movie will begin from mid-January, 2016.
"@gauris film with @iamsrk and @aliaa08 commences
principal photography middle of January! Pre production is on full steam now!
Exciting," Karan had tweeted.
The film will be Gauri’s second directorial venture after
the highly acclaimed ‘English Vinglish’ which marked the comeback of Sridevi
after a gap of 13 years.
The untitled project is said to be a woman-centric film
which narrates the journey of a young girl played by Alia, who falls in love
thrice and learns a new life lesson each time she walks out of a relationship.
Shah Rukh will be seen playing an extended cameo in the film
which has three male leads. The makers have kept the names of the lead actors
under wraps, but it is known that one of them is from the South Indian film
industry.
Alia will be the youngest actress to romance King Khan on
screen. In an interview to a leading daily earlier this month, she revealed
that she is a huge fan of the actor and is both excited and nervous about
working with him.
The film is being co-produced under the banner of Karan’s Dharma
Productions, along with Hope Productions and Shah Rukh’s Red Chillies
Entertainment.
