Meanwhile, Ranbir has been busy shooting for Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra, in which he is paired opposite girlfriend Alia Bhatt. Though the couple has appeared together in advertisements before, this is the first time that they will be seen together on the big screen.

Brahmastra, which also features Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, Nagarjuna Akkineni and Dimple Kapadia, has been planned as a fantasy trilogy. The first instalment is slated for a summer 2020 release. However, reports suggest that due to heavy VFX, it has been pushed to December 2020. There has been no official announcement about the change in release date.

Ranbir also has Karan Malhotra’s dacoit drama Shamshera in the pipeline. He will star alongside Sanjay Dutt and Vaani Kapoor in the film. Many pictures of him shooting for the film in a get-up of a village lad have already leaked online.

Talking about Shamshera, Ranbir had told PTI earlier, “Shamshera is not a story of a ‘daaku’, but a film based in the 1800s, it is about a dacoit tribe who are fighting for their right and independence from the British. There was a great story of heroism, a story rooted in our country which actually happened back then.”
