Abhishek
Kapoor
directorial
Kedarnath
is
one
of
the
most
awaited
films
of
the
year.
The
love
story
which
is
set
against
the
backdrop
of
the
Uttarakhand
floods
of
2013,
has
been
shot
in
real
locations
of
Kedarnath
facing
multiple
issues
owing
to
the
weather.
While
visiting
the
pilgrimage
site
is
a
long
hike
for
anyone,
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
had
to
prepare
in
advance
to
essay
a
pithoo
(porter)
who
carries
pilgrims
on
his
back
to
help
them
get
a
darshan
of
Lord
Shiva.
If
that
wasn't
enough,
he
was
also
required
to
get
into
the
icy
cold
waters
for
a
sequence
that
took
hours
to
shoot.
Talking
about
Sushant
Singh
Rajput,
director
Abhishek
Kapoor
said,
"Sushant
is
very
strong
mentally
and
physically.
Not
everybody
can
lift
huge
weights
on
their
back
and
climb
the
mountain.
As
an
actor,
Sushant
shows
lot
of
dedication
to
his
character,
but
this
time
it
has
been
very
demanding
on
him
physically.
On
certain
days
during
our
shoot
in
Uttarakhand,
the
temperature
would
drop
to
two-three
degrees
and
he
would
have
to
get
wet.
He
would
be
shivering
in
the
cold
while
everyone
else
around
would
be
wearing
jackets
and
gloves.
Undeterred
by
the
topography
and
freezing
cold
weather,
he
would
go
on
shooting."
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
also
shared
about
shooting
in
the
chilling
weather
saying,
"A
thorough
research
and
training
is
always
necessary
for
characters
in
movies
like
these.
I'm
glad
the
team
was
more
than
helpful
to
guide
me
through
the
training.
The
vibe
of
Kedarnath
and
the
thought
of
divine
values
in
the
work
of
pithoos
only
added
to
my
motivation".
Kedarnath
is
an
eternal
love
story
set
in
the
backdrop
of
the
flash
floods
that
wrecked
the
temple
town
in
the
June
of
2013.
It
is
a
potent
combination
of
love
and
religion,
passion
and
spirituality.
The
floods
that
took
the
lives
of
over
a
hundred
thousand
people
is
a
powerful
backdrop
for
this
epic
love
story.
Kedarnath
marks
the
debut
of
Sara
Ali
Khan
and
also
presents
the
second
association
of
Abhishek
Kapoor
with
Ronnie
Screwvala
along
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
after
Kai
Po
Che.
Produced
by
Ronnie
Screwvala's
RSVP
and
Abhishek
Kapoor's
Guy
In
the
Sky
Pictures,
Kedarnath
is
directed
by
Abhishek
Kapoor
and
is
slated
to
release
on
7th
December
2018.
