share screen space for the first time in Shelly
Chopra's directorial debut, Ek Ladki Ko Dekha
To Aisa Laga. The movie will see the father-
daughter duo unite on-screen for the first
time.
Now, as per recent reports, the film will go
on the floors today with Anil and popular TV
actress Madhu Malti (as his mother) in
Patiala, while Sonam will join them in the
next few days.
Shelly confirmed this news to a leading daily,
saying, "I just came back from a meeting
with Anil and he is like a kid, extremely
excited about his role. His character sports a
look that hasn't been seen on him in a long
time. We will be shooting at a family house
in Patiala, which is a perfect setting for the
film. I am shooting entirely at real locations
as I want the film to develop as organically
as possible. We can't wait to start rolling
now."
Juhi Chawla, who has worked with Anil in
films including Deewana Mastana and
Andaz, among others, will join the unit in
the first week of February. Shelly also
revealed that the father-daughter duo is
nervous about sharing screen space for the
first time. "But Anil is also really looking
forward to the outing. While I have all his
costumes in place, he insisted on bringing
his own stuff too," she said, adding that her
producer-brother Vidhu Vinod Chopra will
be joining her on the sets in a few days.
Meanwhile, Rajkummar Rao will be playing
Sonam's love interest in the film. He will be
joining Anil and Sonam on January 29.
Moreover, Anil in his upcoming films is
reuniting with his former leading ladies
namely Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Fanne
Khan and Madhuri Dixit-Nene in Total
Dhamaal. With both the actors, he will be
seen almost after 17 years.
On the other hand, Sonam is currently busy
with the promotions of her upcoming
movie, PadMan. It is slated to release on 9th
Februray, 2018.
