The recent project signed by Ranbir Kapoor is opposite Shraddha Kapoor where he’ll be teaming up with director Luv Ranjan for the first time. The actors have already gone ahead to Noida for the shooting of the movie. If reports are to be believed, the unique part about casting in this movie is going to be the pairing of filmmaker Boney Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia, who are playing the characters of Ranbir’s parents in the movie.
Boney Kapoor recently made his acting debut in the movie AK vs AK and this would be his second one. According to a report in ETimes, Boney Kapoor refused the role at first but on the insistence of Luv Ranjan, he agreed. The process of convincing him involved Arjun Kapoor, Janhavi Kapoor, Anshula and a lot more people. He’s said to be reporting on the sets on 11th of January to start the shooting.
“Boney was their reference point. While the filmmaker had refused the offer, Luv persisted. He asked Arjun Kapoor to convince him and the actor promptly reached out to him, and also got Anshula, Janhvi, and Khushi to do the convincing. Eventually, Boney gave in,” said the source, while speaking to ETimes.
Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor will also be seen in Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra, in which he will be collaborating with his ladylove Alia Bhatt for the first time. Brahmastra also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna Akkineni. ALSO READ: Ranbir Kapoor And Shraddha Kapoor Get Chatty With Paps At The Airport; Duo To Begin Shooting For Luv Ranjan’s Next- Video Inside
