Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh will be seen in Kaashive Nair’s cross-border love story which is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Nikkhil Advani, and John Abraham. And now, John and Aditi Rao Hydari have joined the cast of the film.

John and Aditi will be seen romancing in a track set in 1947. Aditi plays John’s love interest, a younger version of Neena Gupta’s character, Arjun’s grandmother. John and Aditi will currently shoot indoor in this schedule and then later will join the team in October for a short outdoor schedule.


While talking about being back on the sets during the pandemic, John said, “The team has taken extreme care, following all the SOPs, issued by the ministries and the concerned authorities. As a producer, it’s important for me to look out for our cast and crew.”

Further talking about the script and role, the actor said, “When I heard the script, I instantly knew that this would be a special part, and when Kaashvie suggested I play it, it was difficult to refuse.”

Talking about joining the cast, Aditi said, “John and I play a couple in 1946 –47 whose love story remains unfinished and unrequited till Arjun’s character feels the need to bring it to closure. Films like these are rarely made today, so I was quick to come on board.”

Well, we are quite excited to watch the fresh pairing of John and Aditi on the big screen.

  • Barley demand slumped from up to 1 million tonnes to 600-700,000 tonnes expected next year.
  • Major distilleries including Glenmorangie and Teaninich have paused production for months.

Tariffs introduced under the Trump administration have added 10 per cent to importers' costs in the industry's biggest export market.

American tariffs on single malts, suspended four years ago, are expected to return next spring with a further 25 per cent charge unless a deal is reached.
