Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi’s next to be shot in Goa instead of Budapest

With the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic still wreaking havoc on the world, several filmmakers are forced to prepare a new calendar for their films. Over the past two months, a number of movies have been postponed, while all shooting activities stand cancelled.

Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi, the famous duo from Munnabhai M.B.B.S. (2003) and Lage Raho Munnabhai (2006) films, were set to team up once again for a rib-tickling comic-caper by well-known writers Sajid and Farhad Samji.


The makers were gearing up to commence the first shooting schedule of the movie in Budapest in April. But before they could begin production, the world went into complete lockdown and air-travel restrictions were imposed worldwide. The pandemic seems to have caused a massive overhaul in the shooting schedule of the untitled movie.

Reportedly, the film, which was earlier scheduled to be shot abroad, will be now completed in Goa. A source close to the development informs a tabloid, “The film underwent two major location changes. After Europe was severely hit by the pandemic, it became evident that the project would have to be set elsewhere. The makers then considered a stint in Thailand, which had to be scrapped soon after. With international travel being a remote possibility after the lockdown is lifted, Sajid-Farhad are now re-writing the script with Goa as the setting.”

Once the re-write is complete, Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi will allocate new shooting dates to the film. As far as the female lead is concerned, the makers are yet to announce the name officially.

The story is as horrifying as it is fascinating. D’Wit, a seemingly helpful IT consultant from Mersea Island, was hiding a dark and calculating mind. Over the course of several years, he built a web of lies around Carol and Stephen Baxter, a wealthy couple who considered him a close friend. What they could never have known was that D’Wit was plotting their murders, motivated by greed and a chilling lack of empathy.

Is Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma's move to London about their children?

Virat Kohli is having another stellar IPL season, racking up runs for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. But off the field, the chatter isn't just about cricket. It's about his and Anushka Sharma's decision to move to London. The couple, who welcomed their second child Akaay last year, have been spotted frequently in the UK, sparking rumours of a permanent shift. Now, those close to them have confirmed the move, citing their desire for a quieter, more private life for their children.

The intense scrutiny that comes with being one of India's most famous couples has pushed them to seek normalcy abroad. In a candid conversation on a podcast, Dr Shriram Nene (Madhuri Dixit's husband) revealed that Anushka once shared their struggles with fame. "They were considering London because they can't fully enjoy their success here," he said. "Every little thing they do draws attention. It's isolating."
