Mirror had recently reported (January 23) that Saif Ali Khan and R Madhavan will be reuniting for a historical, 17 years after they teamed up for Gautham Menon’s romantic-drama Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein in 2001. Zoya Hussain who made her debut in Anurag Kashyap’s sports drama Mukkabaaz plays the leading lady. Now, Mirror has learnt that the Aanand L Rai production, being directed by NH10 director Navdeep Singh, has a new addition to the cast. Sonakshi Sinha has now been roped in and has already begun filming in Rajasthan where a major portion the film will be shot.
A source close to the development says, “Sonakshi will be playing an interesting cameo in the yet untitled film. She is the surprise element which is why the makers are keeping her part and look tightly under wraps for now.”
The actress plays the lead in another Aanand L Rai production, Happy Phirr Bhag Jaayegi, where she joins Diana Penty, who featured in the original, and Punjabi actor Jassi Gill who is making his Hindi debut with the romcom. The first part of the franchise with Ali Fazal, Abhay Deol, Diana and Jimmy Shergill released in August 2016.
The source informs that Saif, along with other actors, was in Rajasthan last week to kick off the shoot. “It is being shot near Desuri village presently and will move to other parts of the state. Deepak Dobriyal will also be joining the cast in an important role. This will be followed by long schedules in Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh in the coming months,” adds the source, reminding that Sonakshi and Saif had earlier teamed up for Tigmanshu Dhulia’s 2013 action drama Bullett Raja.
Saif and Madhavan have trained in sword-fighting and horse-riding as part of their prep for the period drama. They will require a lot of prosthetics and the team has been working on heir look for a long time. Navdeep was earlier supposed to direct Kaneda, a gangster drama for Anushka Sharma’s production house, featuring the actress, Arjun Kapoor and Diljit Dosanjh. After several delays, he opted out of that project to concentrate on this film.
