Anurag Basu, the director behind an as-yet-untitled romantic drama featuring actors Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela, has explicitly refuted claims that the film's production is nearing its end. In statements made recently, Basu clarified that the project has seen limited progress, with a mere 45 days of shooting completed thus far. This directly counters prevailing narratives suggesting a more advanced stage of production.
Basu, speaking to Variety India, emphasized that the idea of the film being substantially completed is "a myth." He detailed that the current shooting tally stands at no more than 45 days. This revelation casts a different light on the project's timeline, indicating it is "nowhere close to the finish line."
The director also alluded to a packed schedule for himself, suggesting his existing commitments will extend for the "next couple of years." Despite the project's extended timeline, Basu expressed a desire for its release, stating, "I want to get it out right now." However, he appears to believe there is "ample time to get there" amidst his other professional obligations.
