DHRUV, which would be starring Kareena Kapoor and Chitrangada Singh in principle roles along with Farhan Akhtar, has been further delayed. What has further aggravated the situation is Shahrukh Khan's DON 2 which is a priority for the production house.
"Shahrukh Khan would be seen in DON 2 in December this year. Now it is the biggest film ever that has been produced (along with Riteish Sidhwani) and directed by Farhan Akhtar. The trouble though is that DHRUV too is a Farhan Akhtar film. Not just that, he is also the central protagonist there in the capacity of an actor," informs a trade insider who is keeping tabs on the latest developments.
All of this means that the production team's entire concentration is currently on DON 2 due to which DHRUV (to be directed by Sudhir Mishra) stays to be on hold.
Informs a source, "For Shahrukh Khan, DON 2 is a major project. Other than RA. ONE which is his own production, he has also taken the responsibility of keeping the franchise running. It is a loaded action entertainer with extensive effort required to be put into post production. Farhan and others are totally neck deep into DON 2 which means there is no time available for DHRUV to kick start."
What also stays on to be a fact is that there are two more high profile films that are currently being made by Farhan Akhtar and Riteish Sidhwani - ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA (with Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif) and yet untitled film with Aamir Khan, Rani Mukherjee and Kareena Kapoor. Due to that Sudhir's film has to wait for a while.
"That's okay, such things happen during film making. We will start DHRUV post the release of DON 2", Sudhir keeps a brave face here, "In any case, I am planning for another film in the interim."
One hopes this DHRUV doesn't loose itself in the cosmic battle of stars!
