Katrina
Kaif
will
soon
be
seen
in
the
horror-comedy
Phone
Booth
alongside
Siddhant
Chaturvedi
and
Ishaan
Khatter.
The
movie
has
been
in
the
buzz
right
since
its
inception
but
now
it
seems
that
the
rising
COVID-19
cases
have
proven
to
be
an
obstacle
for
this
film
too.
The
latest
development
surrounding
the
movie
suggests
that
an
important
song
sequence
featuring
the
lead
trio
has
been
postponed
due
to
the
sudden
spike
in
the
COVID-19
cases.
A
source
close
to
the
movie
revealed
to
Etimes
that
the
song
shoot
for
Phone
Booth
has
been
cancelled
due
to
the
need
for
at
least
100
background
dancers
for
the
same.
The
source
also
stated
that
if
the
alarming
increase
in
the
COVID-19
cases
does
not
decrease,
then
many
lavish
song
sequences
from
big
films
which
require
a
large
number
of
background
dancers
might
get
postponed.
The
report
further
stated
that
along
with
Katrina
Kaif's
Phone
Booth,
a
song
sequence
from
the
Ranveer
Singh
and
Alia
Bhatt
starrer
Rocky
Aur
Rani
Ki
Prem
Kahani
has
also
been
postponed.
A
senior
dancer
working
in
Bollywood
movies
also
revealed
to
the
publication
stating,
"Producers
are
taking
precaution
because
the
cases
are
going
up
and
they
want
to
avoid
crowds
on
the
set.
This
is
being
done
for
songs
that
require
a
large
number
of
dancers
in
it." Talking
about
Phone
Booth,
the
movie
is
scheduled
to
release
in
the
theatres
on
July
15,
2022.
Helmed
by
Gurmmeet
Singh,
written
by
Ravi
Shankaran
and
Jasvinder
Singh
Bath,
Phone
Bhoot
is
Excel
Entertainment's
newest
offering
after
Gully
Boy
and
Toofaan.
Interestingly,
the
release
date
of
Phone
Bhoot
coincides
with
that
of
the
iconic
Zindagi
Na
Milegi
Dobara
that
was
released
on
15th
July
2011
and
marks
Katrina
Kaif,
Ishaan
Khatter
and
Siddhant
Chaturvedi's
first
film
together.
Earlier,
Ishaan
and
Siddhant
had
been
sharing
some
fun
BTS
pictures
and
videos
from
the
sets
of
the
movie.
Katrina,
Ishaan
and
Siddhant
could
be
seen
posing
for
some
lovely
pictures
and
indulging
in
a
game
of
cricket
going
by
the
video.
The
first
look
of
the
movie
had
seen
the
trio
sporting
a
goofy
expression
while
donning
formal
attire.
