When you plan and practice a mega project that is a magnum opus, everything rides on the same, isn't it? That has been the case ever since the director, producer Karan Johar announced his most ambitious project, the historical drama Takht.

Starring an alluring ensemble cast that includes Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar and Anil Kapoor, the film was scheduled to be going on floors sooner rather than later. However, the film has already had quite a few bumps in its journey, to begin with, which includes having controversies regarding the content, and the scriptwriter being accused of a communal tweet.

The project was still being continued but now with the virus situation, sources say that Takht is strictly a no-can-do project for everyone concerned. Coming to the other project, Dharma Productions, which closed its office temporarily this week, may also have to re-think, restructure, and even drop some of their other projects like Dostana 2 and the Deepika Padukone-Sidhant Chaturvedi starrer that was recently announced.

Im sad as this film's premise and huge star cast had promise

Karan Kay bass ki baat nahi hai aisay historicals direct karna, and also non candyfloss scripts

Everyone saw the strictly mediocre films he made out of wonderful scripts like kabhi alvida na kehna and my name is khan

Takht may bhi gundd hee karay gaa with his surface level thinking & messedup mushy direction

Achcha hai permanently shelved hee ho jaye Takht, as he is no K.Asif

I also thought so and was really looking forward to it.... But this continuous negativity is starting to become a bit tedious...

No such luck lol 😂

Turns out that was fake 😂😂

I still think it will never get made, regardless of the circumstances.

Well, at least coronavirus could give this mediocre filmmaker a respectable excuse to can the project. "Magnum opus", my ass. 🤣

They need to shoot in India and not Italy and do the film on a budget , and maybe the film will do well

Otherwise a Bombay velvet situation
