Ananya Panday enjoying shooting for Pati Patni Aur Woh

Ananya Panday is having a blast shooting for her upcoming Bollywood offering, Pati Patni Aur Woh. It will mark her second release after Student of The Year 2 (2019). Produced by Dharma Productions, SOTY 2 also featured debutante Tara Sutaria and Tiger Shroff in lead roles. Ananya Panday received overwhelming response for her performance in the flick and has been offered a number of projects after its release. However, she seems in no hurry to sign films left right and centre.

Ananya Panday is currently working with Kartik Aaryan in their next film, Pati Patni Aur Woh, which she had signed even before the release of her debut film, Student of the Year 2. The newcomer is enjoying shooting for her second film and also the company of her co-star Kartik Aaryan.


Ananya has shot for some portions of the film in Lucknow. She will head back to the city of Nawabs once again to start the next schedule of the movie. When asked about the schedule and Aaryan, Panday reveals, “I am very excited for this film. I came back from Lucknow yesterday after finishing shooting. I will again head to Lucknow next week. It’s really a funny movie which the audience will enjoy watching. He (Kartik Aaryan) is really funny and always makes us laugh on the film’s set”.

Besides Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday, Pati Patni Aur Woh also stars Toilet: Ek Prem Katha (2017) actress Bhumi Pednekar in the lead role. The comic-caper is an official remake of legendary filmmaker B.R Chopra’s 1978 hit film by the same name, starring Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha, Ranjeeta Kaur, and in guest appearances Rishi Kapoor, Neetu Singh and Parveen Babi.

B.R. Studios and T-Series Films are jointly producing the remake. Pati Patni Aur Woh is poised for its theatrical release on 6th December, 2019. Mudassar Aziz is the director of the much-awaited film.

How Lee Cronin’s 'The Mummy' turns a classic adventure into a domestic horror

Highlights

  • Moves away from the adventure tone of The Mummy (1999) into possession-led horror
  • Shifts the setting from desert tombs to a family home in Albuquerque
  • Focuses on parental fear and a “returned” child rather than treasure hunting
  • Relies on body horror, sound design and shock value over spectacle
  • Critics call it bold and unsettling, but uneven in storytelling

From desert spectacle to domestic dread

For decades, The Mummy has been tied to adventure, romance and spectacle, most famously in The Mummy (1999). That version thrived on sweeping desert landscapes, archaeological intrigue and a sense of escapism.

Lee Cronin takes a sharply different route. His reworking strips away the sense of adventure and relocates the horror into the home. The story still begins in Egypt, anchored by an ancient sarcophagus, but quickly shifts to the United States, where the real tension unfolds inside a family house.
