Sonakshi Sinha who was busy shooting for her upcoming venture 'Nitika Roy and the book of darkness' has finally wrapped up the project. The film, which also stars Arjun Rampal, Paresh Rawal and Suhail Nayyar, went on floors in London and was shot across the British capital and other parts of the UK. The movie had a 40-day schedule in London but wrapped in a record time of mere 35 days. They also shot for a two-day sequence in Mumbai.
Speaking to ANI, Sonakshi said, "It was a great shoot and a very special one for me as I got to star in my brothers' first film. The fine ensemble of the film inspired me to do more and better. It was my first time working with Paresh ji and what an honor to share screen space with him. The shoot was challenging and thus so much more enjoyable. I had a great time shooting with this unit".
Arjun Rampal also shared, "Though it was a short shoot for me, it was a very memorable one. It's such a unique character Kussh wanted me to portray. To get so many emotions in a cameo was a challenge, but I think we pulled it off. Sonakshi, I worked with for the first time, she's very relaxed and we had good chemistry. Reuniting with Paresh Rawal was absolutely delightful. London countryside is always serene and magical to shoot in. Congratulations to the team for completing the film. Looking forward to the final product".
The veteran and versatile actor, Paresh Rawal also shared his experience working on the film. "It was such a pleasure to work with young talents of this movie, especially our energetic producers Nicky and Vicky Bhagnani. They've been excellent producers. I found them to be such well-groomed boys. They are artists who chase their dreams with passion. This is also our director Kussh's first film but we never realized it because he is in so much command of his vision, and his craft and knows exactly what to extract from his actors. It's a mark of a great director. This was a great team. It was my first time working with Sonakshi-ji. She is such a sharp actress. Together we explored such an out-of-the-box subject that's treated so well. I can't wait for everyone to watch the movie," he said.
The film is produced by Nicky & Vicky Bhagnani & Ankur Takrani of Nicky Vicky Bhagnani Film, Kratos Entertainment, Kinjal Ghone of Nikita Pai Films, and Dinesh Gupta. The film directed by Kussh S Sinha is expected to release in 2023.
