Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan


Ajay Devgn's upcoming supernatural horror thriller, also starring R Madhavan, has entered its last shooting leg in Andheri. A source close to the development tells mid-day that the duo, along with actor Jyotika are filming "songs and dramatic portions" in this ongoing 15-day leg.

"It's been a hectic time for Ajay as he has been [shooting] several movies back-to-back. For this leg, they have about four days' worth of work left. Prior to this, the cast and crew were shooting in and around London, including Bedford and Windsor. The two-month schedule in July and August saw them film important scenes, including some action. More than 90 per cent of the film was shot then, and after their return, they resumed shooting in Mumbai immediately," says the source.

While a title is yet to be arrived at for the Vikas Bahl-directed venture, the source reveals that the film is an adaptation of the hit Gujarati offering, Vash, directed by Krishnadev Yagnik. It also featured Janki Bodiwala, who also stars in this edition that marks her Hindi film debut. While Hitu Kanodia played the role of her father in the original, Devgn slipped into the part in this version.

"In stark contrast to his previous roles, Madhavan sports a new look in this edition as a crafty and ruthless antagonist. The good versus evil psycho-thriller is full of twists and turns and sheds light on black magic as well. Just like Devgn's last film Drishyam 2 was altered to suit a new audience, this film too will have a pan-India appeal. It follows a family man who fights to protect his family when they head on a vacation." Devgn has previously dabbled in the genre with films like Ram Gopal Varma's Bhoot (2002) and Soham Shah's Kaal (2005). Devgn is expected to kickstart Rohit Shetty's cop franchise, Singham 3 in mid-September, while this offering is expected to hit the screens on March 8, 2024.
