It
was
earlier
reported
that
Karan
Johar's
next
will
be
a
light-hearted
romantic-comedy
starring
Ranveer
Singh
and
Alia
Bhatt.
The
movie
that
has
been
titled
Prem
Kahani
is
touted
to
remind
the
masses
of
the
classic
KJo
movies
of
the
days
gone
by
that
were
full
of
romance
and
a
plethora
of
emotions.
The
filmmaker
wanted
the
movie
to
go
on
floors
in
the
month
of
May
this
year
but
inevitably
the
COVID-19
second
wave
acted
as
a
bummer.
The
latest
development
of
the
movie
suggests
that
the
prep
for
the
same
has
begun
extensively
by
the
makers.
A
source
close
to
the
Karan
Johar
directorial
film
revealed
to
Bollywood
Hungama
that
the
makers
wanted
to
keep
a
relatable
title
for
the
movie
and
that
is
how
they
zeroed
in
on
Prem
Kahani.
The
source
added
that
the
film
will
be
a
love
story
between
two
opposite
individuals
and
it
will
present
a
vintage
Karan
Johar
story
that
has
in
the
past
few
years
aimed
at
spreading
awareness
and
taking
people
on
a
fairytale
world.
The
filmmaker
and
his
writing
team
have
also
prepared
the
script
and
the
dialogues.
The
source
went
on
to
say
that
before
the
makers
can
go
on
floors
with
the
first
schedule,
the
crew
of
the
movie
will
have
to
be
vaccinated.
The
makers
are
also
on
the
lookout
for
the
sets
in
isolation
before
they
start
shooting.
There
has
also
been
work
going
on
when
it
comes
to
the
music
as
being
a
romantic
saga,
there
will
be
special
emphasis
on
the
soundtracks
of
the
film.
The
movie
will
mark
the
second
collaboration
of
Ranveer
Singh
and
Alia
Bhatt.
The
two
were
last
seen
in
the
movie
Gully
Boy
that
was
directed
by
Zoya
Akhtar
and
was
an
astounding
success.
Talking
about
Karan
Johar,
this
will
mark
his
venture
into
direction
after
four
years.
He
had
last
helmed
the
movie
Ae
Dil
Hai
Mushkil
starring
Ranbir
Kapoor,
Anushka
Sharma
and
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
in
the
lead
roles.
On
the
work
front,
Alia
Bhatt
will
also
be
seen
in
the
movie
Brahmastra
alongside
beau
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
in
movies
like
Gangubai
Kathiawadi,
RRR
and
Darlings.
While
Ranveer
Singh
has
movies
like
83,
Jayeshbhai
Jordaar
and
Cirkus
in
his
kitty.
He
will
also
be
making
a
cameo
in
the
movie
Sooryavanshi.
