The 2005 romantic comedy Bunty Aur Babli had received a lot of love and appreciation for its plot, dialogues, songs and more. A year back, Yash Raj Films had announced the film’s sequel, which stars Gully Boy actor Siddhant Chaturvedi and debutante Sharvari as the new Bunty and Babli.

Now, according to a report by mid-day, the makers have decided to shoot the unfinished portion of the movie in Yash Raj studios. Before the lockdown was imposed, a big chunk of Bunty Aur Babli 2 was shot in Abu Dhabi. With the last leg (including a song) remaining to be filmed, director Varun V Sharma has decided to shoot the track at Yash Raj Studios as opposed to the original plan keeping in mind the actors’ safety.

A source told the publication that the song, to be shot with the lead pair, is one of the most important aspects of the film. “There was a lot of discussion among Aditya Chopra and Varun Sharma about shooting the song indoors, but they have decided to go ahead with the plan in a controlled environment and with minimum staff. Once the permissions are taken, the track is scheduled to be shot in August”.

Earlier, YRF had taken to social media to share a photo of the lead pair.

The original Bunty Aur Babli starred Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukerji as two small-town misfits making their living by committing frauds, until they attract the attention of a police commissioner, played by Amitabh Bachchan. Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji will be reuniting on screen with this movie.
