Deepika Padukone’s film with Shakun Batra misses shooting schedule

According to reports, Deepika Padukone was set to head off to Canada and Sri Lanka to shoot for her forthcoming film with director Shakun Batra, co-starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ananya Panday. However, all plans had to be put on hold in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic.

“Deepika was to reach Sri Lanka on March 18 after her trip to Canada and the team was to begin shooting, but thankfully around five days before, they realised the gravity of the situation and called off the shoot. Shakun was to also fly a few days later and he cancelled it as well, in consultation with the producer Karan Johar, who had earlier bankrolled Shakun’s film Kapoor and Sons (2016),” reveals a source in the know.

If sources are to be believed, Deepika Padukone’s next is a mature love story wherein her and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s characters play a couple in their thirties, while Ananya Panday will be seen a young vivacious girl who brings in the exuberance in the story.

The source further goes on to add, “The film is ideally a relationship drama between a couple who are a bit mature in their thinking and age, as compared to other relationship films these days.”

Deepika Padukone, who was last seen in Chhapaak (2020), will next appear in an extended cameo in husband Ranveer Singh’s much-awaited film ’83. Helmed by Kabir Khan, the sports drama chronicles Indian cricket team’s unprecedented win in the 1983 World Cup tournament in London. ’83 was earlier scheduled to hit the marquee on 10th April, 2020. However, its release date had to be postponed due to the Coronavirus lockdown. The new release date is yet to be announced.

Aamir Khan auditioned for ‘Laapataa Ladies’ but lost the role: Video goes viral!

Aamir Khan’s attempt to play a small-town cop in Kiran Rao’s Laapataa Ladies has sparked conversation among fans, thanks to a newly surfaced audition tape. The Bollywood star, who also produced the film, had initially hoped to take on the role of Sub-Inspector Shyam Manohar. However, director Kiran Rao ultimately chose Ravi Kishan for the part, a decision that many now agree was the right call.

The audition tape, shared on Aamir’s recently launched YouTube channel, Aamir Khan Talkies, shows the actor in a police uniform, chewing paan and trying out a rural accent. The video also includes bloopers, giving fans a insider view in to his efforts to embody the character. While Aamir is known for his dedication to roles, viewers were quick to point out that something felt off.
