Karan Johar Starts Shooting In Chandigarh

At the end  of 2018 Karan Johar is on a roll once again. Barely had he  revived the new season of his celebrity talk show Koffee With Karan than he announced his new digital  production plans.

And now  the crew of  Karan Johar’s feature  film Good News has taken off to Chandigarh to shoot for a stretch. The  film directed  by debutant Raj Mehta began shooting on Thursday November 29 with Diljit Dosanjh and  Kiara Advani. The film’s other lead pair Akshay  Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Khan are expected to join the crew in Chandigarh after Akshay finishes  promoting 2: 0  in Mumbai.

Incidentally  Karan Johar is  a co-producer in 2:0  and therefore happy to let his Good News hero off for promotion. In fact Akshay’s  next release after  2: 0  is another Karan  Johar production 2:0.

Jokes  Akshay, “From  having coffee with Karan I am now having breakfast , lunch and  dinner with him.”

Good News  tells the story of  two couples played by Akshay Kumar –Kareena Kapoor, Diljit Dosanjh-Kiara Advani who are trying to have a baby.

The  “dramedy” as  Karan Johar calls it , is to be released  on 19 July 2019.

Interestingly Johar’s Dharma Productions which so far shot  feature films largely on exotic foreign locales , seems  to be goingdesi in a big way. Good News will be the  first  of a slew of forthcoming Dharma  Production to be shot  largely in India.
