Varun Dhawan and Shashank Khaitan are considered one of the most successful actor-director duos of Bollywood. The two have previously worked together on Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2014) and Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017). Both films hit a home run at the box-office and still attract huge viewership on television.
After the success of Badrinath Ki Dulhania, Varun Dhawan and Shashank Khaitan were set to collaborate on a period war drama titled Rannbhoomi. Producer Karan Johar had even announced the project officially on Twitter. However, soon it went into cold storage for reasons best known to the makers.
The latest we hear that the duo is set to team up again for another film. According to reports, Varun Dhawan will start working on Shashank Khaitan’s next film in January 2020, after wrapping up his ongoing project Coolie No. 1 which pairs him opposite Sara Ali Khan. His father David Dhawan is calling the shots for the remake of the 1995 cult comic-caper of the same name.
Though nothing much is known about their next film at the moment, some media outlets have reported that it will be an action flick. If the two are really collaborating again, the upcoming project will mark a hat-trick of their films. More details on the project are awaited.
Meanwhile, the audience is awaiting the release of Varun Dhawan’s dance flick Street Dancer 3D. Also starring Shraddha Kapoor in the lead role, the upcoming film is directed by Remo D’souza. It reunites the actor with Remo D’souza and Shraddha Kapoor after their 2015 outing ABCD 2. The flick will hit the theatres early next year.
