Bollywood's first space odyssey film Chanda Mama Door Ke delayed again!

The upcoming Sushant Singh Rajput film Chanda Mama Door Ke, which is being hailed as India's first space odyssey film, is all set to get delayed one more time.

The ambitious project has been grabbing a lot of eyeballs ever since its announcement last year, but more than any creative development, it keeps hitting headlines for its indefinite delays.


The latest we hear that after missing its mid-2017 schedule, the film is going to miss its year-end schedule also, which means that it will now go on floors next year.

According to a source, "After Sushant returned from NASA, he was told that the film would take a few more months of pre-production work. It was only legit that he gave his dates for Abhishek Kapoor for Kedarnath, who was set to start filming."

“As of now, the film hasn’t been shelved, but since it is an expensive movie to make, it can’t start until the financial logistics are worked out. The actors have assigned their dates to different films, which were earlier stated for Chanda Mama Door Ke,” reports a portal.

Meanwhile, Sushant Singh Rajput is currently busy shooting for his next Kedarnath. The film marks the acting debut of Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh's daughter, Sara Ali Khan.
