Arjun Kapoor is shifting out of Mumbai! Before you jump to conclusions, the actor, who has just wrapped up Raj Kumar Gupta’s India’s Most Wanted and is all set to start shooting for Panipat, will stay in Karjat during the historical’s entire schedule. Ashutosh Gowariker’s period drama, which is being mounted on a large scale, will be shot at N D Studios in the hilly town on the outskirts of Mumbai.

“Arjun wants to live and breathe the role of the fearless Maratha Peshwa that he is essaying in Panipat. So, he will shift to the town five days before the movie goes on floors early next week. He wants to have a single-minded approach during the intense shoot. He told us that he doesn’t want to waste time travelling to and fro and wants to stay with the unit,” says a production source.
