Ranveer Singh is once again set to share the screen space with his Gully Boy co-star Alia Bhatt in Karan Johar’s ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’. KJo is making a directorial comeback with the family drama after a gap of nearly seven years. The film also features Dharmendra, Jaya Bachchan and Shabana Azmi.
While Karan has already shot a portion of the film in New Delhi, it will be released in February next year. Talking about the movie, Ranveer told BollywoodLife.com, “Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani is a quintessential Karan Johar movie, it’s vintage Karan Johar, everything that you love about his films – the songs, the glamour, the good-looking leads, the family dynamics, the pulpy drama, the humour, the romance, it’s all packed in there; every trope you’ve seen in Karan Johar movies, his brand of cinema you have loved – all there.”
Elaborating on the plot of Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, Ranveer added, “It’s been eons since a film like this has come, and now to do it with a man who invented this genre of ‘all about loving your family’ – it’s going to be his quirkiest, zaniest film, and it’s shaped up so well, we’re about 60% through with it. The movie is going to be amazing.”
If reports are to be believed Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are going to make a cameo in the film. Additionally, Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday will reportedly be a part of a dance number in the movie.
Earlier this year, BollywoodLife report claimed that Shah Rukh has already given his seal of approval to the film. “Shah Rukh who has a choco block schedule might give a day to Karan Johar for his shoot and most probably they will do the shooting in Mumbai itself,” the source said.
