BREAKING: Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sridevi and Sanjay Dutt join Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt for Shiddat




In what seems to be one of the most powerful collaborations of Bollywood, Nadiadwala Grandsons and Dharma Productions have once again come together for Shiddat and the star cast for the same is astounding. Earlier we had reported that the film is a love story starring Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt but with the latest additions, the film has become one of the most intriguing forthcoming projects.

While the Gen Y stars are retained, let us tell you, Shiddat will feature six protagonists and the rest of the four names are Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sridevi and Sanjay Dutt. The said film, as reported before, is directed by Abhishek Varman who previously joined hands with the two producers for 2 States. While he has worked with Alia in his debut directorial, this is the first time he will be working with the rest of the star cast. But the makers are yet to make an official announcement on the same.

On the other hand, talking about the actors, Sonakshi Sinha will be sharing screen space with the entire cast for the first time. Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt have become one of the most popular pairs who have now come together for their fourth film. As for Aditya, he too will be seen with Alia for the first time in an entire film. As for Sanjay Dutt and Sridevi, the two will be coming together after Gumrah in 1993. The two will also be seen together with the younger cast for the first time.

As for the film, Shiddat is a period love story that will be extensively shot within India. From what we hear, the film is slated to go on floor next year.

Diljit is in it too

Well they might play significant roles but I am sure Sonakshi wouldn't play second fiddle to Alia so I guess cameo

Think ARK replaced Diljit, originally cast was Varun, Alia Diljit, then was said to be Arjun, Varun and Alia and now am guessing they've locked in on ARK.
Super Cinema ran an article today on it also.


SHIDDAT IS NOW A BIGGIE!!!

We were the rst ones to tell you about Dharma Productions and Nadiadwala Grandsons Entertainment's next co-venture SHIDDAT last year. The movie has been a tad bit difficult to cast given that it has six main leads in the movie. However if anyone who can get a massive cast together it's got to be the deadly combination of Karan Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala. They both along with the director Abhishek Varman have worked their magic and got a phenomenal cast locked for this one. Sanjay Dutt, Sridevi, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapoor have all agreed and signed on the dotted line for this one. The movie is a period love story and will be shot extensively in India. The makers are now locking the secondary cast of this one. Varman has in the past only worked with Alia in this new setup but he is an accomplished storyteller even though he is only a single movie old. It will be interesting to see how all of these big names come together. The movie will mount the sets by mid-2018 and an official announcement will be made very soon. Watch this space for more on this one!

I have seen such big ensembles become a mess. No one wins. Fans get disappointed.

By any chance, is it an episodic film? Like many different stories unrelated to each other?

The cast is too big and heavy
Hope they don't mess it up
If the story is strong it will succeed

Yeh kya pagalpana hai 😆 I guess turquoisedress was right Kjo & Dharma's PR are just throwing/adding names for finance purpose.
I really wanted to see Varun in Anti-Hero role again but now Shiddat seems like another Shuddhi.
