Karan Johar, who has several successful films to his credit, will next direct a period drama called Takht. To be made on a humongous cost, Takht is said to be the most ambitious film ever produced under the banner of Dharma Productions.
The project, as we all know, was announced in 2018. It was expected to hit the shooting floor in early 2019. However, half of the year has already gone, but the movie is yet to roll.
Up till now, we knew that the makers were planning to kick-start the first schedule of the film towards the end of 2019. However, if the latest reports are to be believed, Karan Johar’s ambitious directorial venture is now expected to go on the floors in 2020.
Since Johar wants everything in place before he starts rolling the camera, the film has now been pushed to 2020.
Spilling some beans, a source close to the development reveals, “Takht will now take off in February next year. Earlier, it was on track and was supposed to take off by this year-end. But Karan Johar wanted to make it be fully prepared as this is going to be one of the biggest films in India’s cinematic history.
He had to also make sure he had the dates of all his stars. So after some back and forth, Takht will now go on the floors in February 2020. Everyone, including Karan Johar and the stars, is pumped and raring to go.”
Takht stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Anil Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor in principal roles. The period drama has its screenplay written by Sumit Roy while dialogues have been penned down by Hussain Haidry and Sumit Roy.
Takht will release sometime in 2020.
