Mumbai, April 17 (IANS) The shooting for filmmaker Shashank Khaitan’s upcoming movie “Dhadak”, featuring Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor, has concluded.
Karan Johar, who is backing the film, on Tuesday shared a photograph of the film’s lead pair along with Khaitan.
“The warmest trio at Dharma Movies! Shashank Khaitan is truly the strongest guide, mentor, friend and above all director! Janhvi and Ishaan are truly the heartbeat of ‘Dhadak’,” Karan captioned the image.
While “Dhadak”, which is the Hindi remake of Marathi film “Sairat”, will mark Janhvi’s foray into Bollywood, Ishaan is making his acting debut with Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi’s India-set movie “Beyond The Clouds”.
“Sairat” was critically acclaimed for its content and performances by newcomers Rinku Rajguru and Akash Thosar.
It was between the shoot of “Dhadak” that Janhvi’s mother and veteran actress Sridevi died due to accidental drowning in a Dubai hotel. Janhvi put up a brave face and was back to shoot the film within a few days.
