A family affair
Reveals our source, "Varun and Aditya will
be playing brothers in the film, while
Sridevi and Sanjay Dutt will play their
parents. The two brothers will have a
strained relationship throughout the film.
While Varun and Sidharth have played
younger brother to senior actors like Shah
Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar in Dilwale
and Brothers, respectively, this is the first
time two young Gen-Y actors will play
brothers on screen. Unless you consider
Kapoor & Sons where Sidharth and Fawad
played brothers.
The period angle
The film is set during the Indo-Pak
Partition era, which means it will have a
period setting. Our source adds, "Designer
Manish Malhotra has already started
planning designs for the cast from that
era. The '40s will be recreated and a huge
set will be built in the city to shoot the
film.
Love triangle
"While Varun and Aditya play brothers, Alia
is the bone of contention between them.
So it's a love triangle as well, says our
source. This won't be the first time Alia
and Varun are part of a love triangle. Both
were in Student Of The Year, which, too,
had a love triangle.
