Out of three films he has in hands, debutant director Varun V Sharma’s Bunty Aur Babli 2 is almost completed and has only a song remaining which will be shot in a few weeks at Yash Raj Studios, keeping safety measures in place. Shakun’s Dharma production is expected to roll once normalcy returns and will be filmed in one go.
