Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar finally addressed the conjecture about casting real-life couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh together, in his next film.
In a recent Instagram live session, Karan Johar responded to the reports of him, working on the remake of the 60s romance-musical ‘Sangam’, of Raj Kapoor, with A-list couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh in the lead.
Sharing updates on his next project, the ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ director said, “I’m nearly done with my screenplay; I am a week away from my first draft for the film I want to direct next.”
Johar also mentioned that the film will go on the floors by the end of this year.
However, responding to queries about the hotly-anticipated ‘Sangam’ remake, the filmmaker confirmed, “I’m not making a love story. I think my love story quota kind of needs to take a little bit of a break but the film I am writing definitely has a strong love story embedded in it.”
“So love is something I can’t do without music is something I can’t do without so that all will always be a huge part of my cinema,” he concluded.
Notably, Bollywood’s power couple, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, who tied the knot in 2018, were last seen together in a special song ‘Current Laga Re’, in the former’s period-comedy, ‘Cirkus’.
