While most filmmakers are feeling confident about taking their projects on floors, director Anil Sharma has chosen to err on the side of caution. The director, who had hoped to roll Apne 2 starring Dharmendra, Sunny, Bobby and Karan Deol — in the UK in September, has done a rethink. A source reveals, “The film has to be shot across London. Since things have only now begun to open up the world over, Anil thought it would be best to push the project by a few months, and shoot when the situation is more conducive. Another factor influencing his decision was Karan’s prep for the movie. The youngster has to pick up boxing. However, the US-based boxer, who was roped in for his training, has been unable to fly down to India.
This is the second time the family drama the sequel to the 2007 film, Apne has been deferred. Originally, the project was to roll in April this year, but the second wave of the pandemic thwarted the filmmaker’s plans.
Sharma confirms the recent change of plans, saying, “The film has now been pushed. We will start shooting by March 2022.”
