Akshay and Parineeti to head off to Jaipur to shoot a romantic song for Kesari

Akshay Kumar and Parineeti Chopra, who have teamed up for the very first time for Karan Johar’s production venture Kesari, will be flying to Pink City Jaipur to shoot a romantic song for the forthcoming war-drama film.

The lavishly-mounted romantic song will be shot over a period of four days starting from next week. Choreographer Vijay Ganguli has choreographed the song. With the completion of the song, the entire film will wrap up.


A source close to the development reveals that the team has finalized Jaipur after considering various cities across the country.

“Akshay has been shooting at the helipad at Filmcity, where a set was recreated after the one in Wai was gutted in a fire in April, 10 days before wrap-up. A lavishly-mounted romantic number is still left to be shot and after considering various cities, the team has finalised Jaipur for it. It will be shot over four days next week and will be choreographed by Vijay Ganguly,” the source said.

Kesari, which is based on the famous Battle of Saragarhi of 1897, features superstar Akshay Kumar as Havildar Ishar Singh, while Parineeti Chopra will be seen as his wife. The film is directed by debutant Anurag Singh for Dharma Productions.

It is set to release on 22nd March, 2019.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
