There have been reports from the past few months that Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor will be seen in Luv Ranjan’s next which is a romantic-comedy. Earlier, the film was supposed to star Deepika Padukone as the female lead, but the actress opted out of the film.


Now, according to a report in Mumbai Mirror, the shooting of Ranjan’s film will kickstart in January 2021. A source told the tabloid, “It’s just a small schedule to start with and will end by January 14. Right after, Ranbir moves to the final leg of Brahmastra from mid-January during which he will shoot two songs and a few scenes. The film is expected to wrap up before January 31.”

After wrapping up Brahmastra, Ranbir will return to Ranjan’s film. The source stated, “Ranbir no longer wants his films to take so long to finish; the idea is to shoot nonstop for Luv’s film and complete it by May 2021.”

It is said that Ranbir has added a new clause in his contract that if the shoot of a film doesn’t get over in the specified time, he will charge an extra remuneration.

Ranbir was last seen on the big screen in the 2018 release Sanju. He has been busy shooting with Brahmastra and a few weeks ago he wrapped up the shooting of Shamshera. Both the films were scheduled to release this year, but due to the pandemic, they have been postponed.

The actor also has Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s next in his kitty, and reportedly, he is in talks with Sanjay Leela Bhansali to star in Baiju Bawra. Meanwhile, apart from Luv Ranjan’s next, Shraddha Kapoor has Nagin in her kitty.

Who are LeT and JeM, the groups targeted by Indian strikes?

INDIA said on Wednesday it had carried out strikes on nine locations in Pakistan that it described as sites "from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed." The action followed last month’s deadly attack in Kashmir.

India and Pakistan, both nuclear-armed nations, have fought two wars since their independence from Britain in 1947 over the disputed region of Kashmir, which both countries control in part and claim in full.

Why Karan Johar thinks Suhana Khan and Aryan Khan are paving their own way in Bollywood

Karan Johar has known Shah Rukh Khan's children, Suhana and Aryan, for years, almost like family. But in a recent chat on Raj Shamani’s podcast, the filmmaker stripped away all the glam and sentimentality to talk plainly about their journeys in the film industry. “These two are not just star kids, they’re serious about their work,” he shared.

Starting with Suhana, Karan didn’t shy away from the criticism she received after The Archies. But he pointed out that her next film King, opposite her father Shah Rukh Khan, will be a real game-changer. “People will finally see her for who she is on screen,” he said, adding that she’s put in the hours, studied the craft, and is not relying on her last name. According to him, Suhana’s work speaks for itself. He’s seen her earlier performances and believes King will prove there’s a real actor in her, one with her own voice, not just a shadow of her father.
