Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar partner with Jio Studios
According to sources close to the development, Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar’s next will be backed by Jio Studios and the filming has begun today. “Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar have found their production partner in Jio Studios, who heard the script and were bowled over by the narration. The studio will be going all out to mount the film on a scale that it deserves as they completely believe in the subject and the ability of Ranveer and Aditya to bring in the audience to the big screen,” revealed the source.
According to insiders, this will be among the bigger films under production for Jio Studios. “It’s a real-life story from the tenure of Ajit Doval in his younger days. While all character dynamics are under wraps, Ranveer’s character is from Punjab, which is the reason for him to grow the beard. It’s a first for him. R Madhavan and Akshaye Khanna play the part of senior officers from Indian Intelligence Agency, R&AW,” the source added.
