It's
Not
Just
An
Epic
Story
Rannbhoomi
is
a
love
story
at
heart
with
an
element
of
revenge
at
the
core
of
the
narrative.
It
also
indulges
in
emotions
and
opulence
in
equal
measure.
A
Hattrick
Karan
Johar
was
quoted
as
saying,
"
Rannbhoomi
is
Shashank's
colossal
and
ambitious
imagination
to
attempt
a
hat-trick
with
Varun
and
Dharma
Productions."
Shashank
Spills
The
Beans
About
The
Film
The
filmmaker
told
a
leading
daily,
"Rannbhoomi
is
a
warrior
film,
which
showcases
love,
relationships,
sacrifices,
revenge,
and
heroism.
I
remember,
I
began
developing
it
in
December
2015
and
shared
the
idea
with
Varun,
who
got
excited
about
it.
Now,
Karan
has
given
us
the
wings
to
fly
and
we
are
excited
to
turn
this
dream
into
a
reality."
Varun
Was
Always
The
First
Choice
For
The
Film
A
source
told
Hindustan
Times,
"
Rannbhoomi
will
be
Karan's
third
collaboration
with
Varun
and
Shashank.
The
trio
shares
a
great
equation
and
their
relationship
now
goes
beyond
just
that
of
a
mentor-protégée.
Varun
and
Shashank
get
along
really
well
and
although
Shashank
is
currently
busy
shooting
for
Dhadak,
he
has
been
talking
about
the
new
film
with
Varun.
In
fact,
he
wrote
the
script
of
the
new
film
with
the
actor
in
mind,
as
he
was
sure
he
would
only
work
with
him.
Varun,
too
agreed
almost
immediately
after
he
heard
the
script,
as
he
was
absolutely
impressed
with
it."
Varun
Says
Rannbhoomi
Is
An
Ambitious
Film
With
A
Beating
Heart
The
'Judwaa
2'
actor
was
quoted
as
saying,
"Shashank
is
not
only
a
close
friend,
he's
also
a
film-maker
whom
I
have
tremendous
respect
for.
Our
association
has
always
been
successful
and
magical,
and
we
decided
to
take
our
alliance
further
and
create
a
mammoth
spectacle.
Dharma
is
home
for
the
both
of
us,
and
what
better
team
than
this
to
collaborate
on
a
Diwali
celebration?
Rannbhoomi
is
an
ambitious
film
with
a
beating
heart."
