20 June 2023, Mumbai: A decade after the release of the beloved film Raanjhanaa, director Aanand L Rai and actor Dhanush are all set to recreate their magic on the big screen once again. Known for their successful collaborations, the duo has joined forces for a yet untitled action love story that is bound to captivate audiences. This exciting project is expected to commence production in the first quarter of 2024.
In 2013, Aanand L Rai introduced Dhanush to the Hindi film industry through the romantic drama Raanjhanaa, featuring Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol. The film received immense praise and emerged as a sleeper hit, playing a significant role in establishing Dhanush as a recognizable face in the Hindi markets. The talented pair reunited for the recently released Atrangi Re, which garnered appreciation for its compelling storyline and exceptional performances. Dhanush and Aanand L Rai are now set to achieve a hat-trick of collaborations with their upcoming feature film. The script for this exciting project has been in the works for some time, and Aanand L Rai is finally prepared to bring it to life on the silver screen. The actor and director have met multiple times over the past few months, culminating in the recent signing of their agreement.
The timing of the film’s announcement is also significant, coinciding with the 10-year anniversary of Raanjhanaa. This milestone holds a special place in Aanand L Rai’s heart, making it the perfect occasion to unveil their next cinematic venture. Audiences can anticipate a special announcement from the team to commemorate the musical love story’s anniversary.
Set against the backdrop of the heartland of India, much like Aanand L Rai’s previous hits such as Tanu Weds Manu and Raanjhanaa, the yet untitled action love story promises to deliver an engaging narrative.
In addition to Dhanush’s involvement, the makers are in talks to cast an A-list actor for the female lead, aiming to assemble a talented ensemble for the film.
