Images: Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor get romantic for Dhadak in a Rajasthan haveli
8:17 AM
The lovers in the Sairat remake spent some ‘alone’ time inside a buggy

Three days ago, choreographer Farah Khan had revealed that she was “coming out of retirement” to recreate “Zhingaat”, the foot-tapping track from Nagraj Manjule’s Marathi superhit Sairat for its Hindi remake, the Shashank Khaitan-directed Dhadak that marks Boney Kapoor and Sridevi’s daughter Janhvi Kapoor’s acting debut opposite Ishaan Khatter.
On Tuesday, Mirror caught the onscreen lovers in action on the sets at Mumbai’s Film City studio where an opulent Rajasthani haveli, Janhvi’s home in the film, has been recreated. The first schedule was shot in Jaipur in December.
The sequence being shot had Ishaan, casually dressed in jeans and Kolhapuri chappals, as befits a filmi aam aadmi, leading a coy and richie rich Janhvi, traditionally dressed in a designer ghagra-choli, away from her haveli and the prying eyes of their families, into an imperial buggy where they can spend some “alone” time together. Given that this is a Karan Johar production, it’s no surprise that not only has the location changed from a remote village in Maharashtra to a favourite Bollywood destination, Rajasthan, but even the scale of the film has been upped.
A nondescript car has metamorphosed into an oldworld carriage and the lovers have got a lot more uninhibited this time around. Shelar watched the couple get intimate inside the buggy for two-and-a-half hours, till the unit broke for dinner. There was a lot of touching and some kissing too. The film’s team resumed shooting the sequence after midnight and continued till 5 am. —Pics and text by Raju Shelar
