Yash Raj Films’ Shamshera to commence first schedule tomorrow

Announced earlier this year, Yash Raj Films’ much-awaited movie Shamshera will start rolling cameras from 1st December in Mumbai. To be helmed by popular filmmaker Karan Malhotra, the fantasy period drama stars Ranbir Kapoor, Sanjay Dutt and Vaani Kapoor in lead roles.

Before rolling the camera, Yash Raj Films had organized a customary pooja which was attended by Ranbir Kapoor, Vaani Kapoor and director Karan Malhotra. Sanjay Dutt couldn’t make it to the ceremony as his prior commitments kept him busy.


“It was amazing to have Shamshera’s cast and crew under one roof before we dive into shooting our film. All of us are excited to start this journey," director Karan Malhotra had said.

Shamshera, which is being touted as one of the most expensive productions of Bollywood, marks Ranbir Kapoor’s third collaboration with Yash Raj Films after Bachna Ae Haseeno (2008) and Rocket Singh: Salesman of The Year (2009).

The makers are planning to wrap up Shamshera by mid-2019. The movie is scheduled to hit screens on 31st July, 2020.

Saif Ali Khan has spoken about stepping away from wedding performances, saying the mix of wealth, access and social circles makes him uncomfortable. The actor said in a recent interview that the shift began years ago, after a relative questioned why he was dancing at a private event.

Saif Ali Khan remembered being backstage in Mumbai when his father’s sister walked up and said she could not believe he was dancing at a wedding. The remark stung, and it stayed with him. He said that some actors see themselves as entertainers and are happy to turn up, take the fee and move on. However, he has stopped feeling that way.
