Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui to hit screens on July 9, 2021

By: Mohnish Singh

Starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor in lead roles, T-Series Films and Guy in the Sky Pictures’ upcoming film Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui has booked a date for its theatrical release.


The romantic drama, which commenced principal photography on October 21, 2020, in Chandigarh, will debut in cinemas on July 9, 2021. It has been directed by Abhishek Kapoor who last helmed Kedarnath (2018), starring late actor Sushant Singh Rajput and debutante Sara Ali Khan.

For the uninitiated, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui was one of the first mainstream films to go on floors right after the Indian government announced some relief in the Coronavirus-induced lockdown restrictions.

The team wrapped up the entire film in a 48-day shoot schedule, taking utmost safety precautions and following all protocols laid down by the government in the wake of the pandemic.

On completing the shoot in December last year, Ayushmann Khurrana had taken to Twitter to pen down an endearing note for the team. Sharing a few pictures with his co-star Vaani Kapoor and director Abhishek Kapoor, he wrote, “Today, I feel immensely proud that our film is the first one in India to finish shooting an entire film while battling the Coronavirus. I have to credit my director and producer Abhishek Kapoor and Pragya Kapoor for manning the resources so diligently and so effectively. It feels amazing that we managed this feat in my hometown Chandigarh – could not be prouder!!! Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui is a very special film for me and I cannot wait to share it with the world in cinemas next year.”

Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui is scheduled for its theatrical bow on July 9, 2021. Keep visiting this space over and again for more updates and reveals from the glitzy world of entertainment.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
