The abysmal box office performance of Abhishek Chaubey’s bleak but brilliant Sonchiriya has put a question mark on Yash Raj Films’ underproduction dacoit drama Shamsherastarring Ranbir Kapoor.

Ranbir Kapoor’s dacoit drama Shamshera being re-viewed after Sonchiriya

Sources say Aditya Chopra is re-viewing the entire project in the light of the complete rejection of Sonchiriya. The question, say sources, is one of commercial viability. “Do audiences want to see dacoit dramas of the hard-core commercial kind like Mera Gaon Mera Desh, Kachche Dhaage and Heera or the more raw and real kind like Mujhe Jeene Do, Bandit Queen and Sonchiriya? Shamshera falls between the two extremes. And although Adi (producer Aditya Chopra) has full faith in his director Karan Malhotra and actor Ranbir Kapoor, there is a constant pressure to ensure box office success. After Sonchiriya, Shamshera is being re-examined,” says a source in the know.

This is not to suggest that the film is being put on hold. Not at all! However the Eid 2020 release may not be met after all.

Another RK release that will probably get delayed.

Jha needs to decide which reason though because he said last article it was getting delayed because of Brahmastra.

According to sources, Brahmastra producer Karan Johar went over to his close friend mentor Aditya Chopra, the producer of Shamshera requesting for additional dates. Says a source in the know, “Ranbir’s dates for Shamshera were supposed to start after the completion of Brahmastra. But it seems Ayan requires more of Ranbir’s dates. Karan requested Adi for more time and Adi complied. Shamshera will now be completed in 2021.”

In 2013 ,on a high after Barfi and YJHD success,RK signed multiple films.In 2020,7 years later,he will finally finish his backlog.One film delay can have affect on the other film.

After Raazi,Alia did the same.Alia and RK were thick since 2016..and she didn't learn anything? Will inshallah,affect Takht? What happens to RRR?How is Sadk 2 progressing?When does the Arunima biopic start?

Decoits se bada problem hai Angrez as the opposition. Todays youth don't enjoy seeing Angrez as their enemies. They will not cheer against the enemy they don't take as their enemy.

They'll do what they've always done-blinds, using relationships for PR and....When all else fails, Deepika is there. She's Ranbir's best PR. As long as Ranveer is relevant, she'll stay relevant and she'll make sure he stays relevant. That means ample endorsements ..
