Karan Johar is set to return back to the director’s chair with his next film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani which stars Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh. Previously, the filmmaker had stated that the movie, which also features Shabana Azmi, Jaya Bachchan, and Dharmendra, will be released on the big screen over the Valentine's Day weekend in 2023. Now the sources have revealed that the release of the family drama is postponed. The film is now set to hit the theatres in the second half of 2023.
A source close to the film revealed, “Keeping Alia Bhatt’s pregnancy in mind, Karan has delayed the shooting schedule of a film’s key sequence. While the initial plan was to shoot in August, the filmmaker will now be shooting the scene in question once Alia Bhatt is back to shoot after her delivery. He is planning to commence this 10-to-15-day schedule with Alia in the first quarter of 2023. The delay in the shooting has, in turn, led to a delay in the film’s release date.”
Further, the source added, “Alia’s first Hindi film was helmed by Karan and now, the first film post pregnancy will also be Karan Johar's directorial. It’s a collective decision and the entire team is on the same page with the decision. The new release date will be announced shortly as Karan and co. are yet to zero down on the plans.”
Until then, Alia Bhatt will have another release this year with Brahmastra which is set to hit theatres on September 9.
