Ayushmann Khurrana starts filming Anubhav Sinha’s next

After delivering two back-to-back blockbusters – Andhadhun and Badhaai Ho – in 2018, versatile Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana has now started shooting for his next film titled Article 15.

The movie is being helmed by well-known director Anubhav Sinha and talks about inequalities in Indian society. The team started its first schedule on Wednesday in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.


The makers also unveiled the first look of the film which sees Ayushmann in the role of a police officer. Standing next to his jeep, the actor is going through some important papers. It is the first time when Ayushmann Khurrana is playing a cop in any film.

Talking about the movie, Khurrana said, “I’m always intrigued by the socio-political situation of our country. We hardly see films which present the situation in an unbiased way. Anubhav Sinha is one such director who understands the complexities of our country. I loved Mulk (2018). It is the most balanced film based on communalism and extremism. And it will be an absolute pleasure to work with him on Article 15.”

Besides Article 15, Ayushmann Khurrana will also be seen in Bala and Dreamgirl.

Amazon’s ‘God of War’ reset proves Hollywood can’t get video game adaptations right

Highlights

  • Dave Bautista is taking over as Kratos after Ryan Hurst's injury forced Amazon to recast the role.
  • The series is effectively starting again, with none of the footage from the original production being used.
  • The major reset puts fresh pressure on Amazon's attempt to adapt one of gaming's most recognisable franchises.

Hollywood's relationship with video game adaptations has changed considerably in recent years. Shows such as The Last of Us and Fallout have demonstrated that games can translate successfully to television when their characters and worlds are treated with care. Amazon's God of War, however, has already encountered a production setback that makes its journey to the screen considerably more complicated.

Dave Bautista has closed his deal to play Kratos in the Prime Video series after Ryan Hurst, who was originally cast in the role, suffered a serious on-set injury. Hurst reportedly tore his bicep while performing a stunt in June, around four months into filming. Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television subsequently decided to recast the central role.
