The team of Dharma Productions’ latest film Jug Jugg Jeeyo are in Chandigarh and the shooting schedule is on. Karan Johar posted seeking blessings of all elders and started off the shoot that includes Anil Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, Varun Dhawan and Kiara Advani.
In the past too, Varun Dhawan and Kiara Advani were supposed to do a film titled Mr Lele, but that didn’t happen as Kiara who was on a high thanks to Good Newwz backed out of the film. But the duo was seen in a song in Kalank and the pair hit it off well.
Finally, they are back together for the family entertainer Jug Jugg Jeeyo. The comedy will be directed by Raj Mehta, who had last directed Good Newwz for Dharma Productions.
The film is also a comeback for Neetu Kapoor after the death of her husband Rishi Kapoor, who had played cameos in films like Kal Aaj Aur Kal. Neetu Kapoor had a moving post on social media as she was getting ready to face the camera. She said she felt a bit scared getting back and posted, “Back on the set after so many years. To new beginnings and the magic of the movies. I feel YOUR love and presence. From mom, to Kapoor sahib, to Ranbir always being with me… now I find myself all by myself, feeling a little scared, but I know you are always with me.” In 2013, Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor played onscreen couple for their son’s film Besharam.
This time around, she is paired opposite Anil Kapoor. Friends and family took to social media to send encouraging messages to Neetu Kapoor.
