Director Luv Ranjan of Pyaar Ka Punchnaama and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety fame managed to pull off an exciting casting coup by roping in gen-X heartthrob and a superstar for his next. Ranjan’s upcoming project will reunite Ajay Devgn and Ranbir Kapoor after a hiatus of eight years, as the duo was last seen together in Raajneeti. However, with two biggies on board, matching dates is no cakewalk as appointment diaries are always running full, a year in advance usually. Thus, Ranjan’s forthcoming, which was touted to roll this December was pushed to next year. A recent confirmation from the makers confirms the film will release on 25th December, 2020 as a Christmas treat for the audience.

Bringing the two powerhouse performers together the film is supposed to be an out and out entertainer.

Both Ajay and Ranbir have their platter full at present. RK is shooting now for Brahmastra, his supernatural film with Ayan Mukerji. This will be followed by his dacoit biopic Shamshera. He will complete shooting for both these films early next year. Ajay has his projects in hand too. He has Total Dhamaal and Akiv Ali’s film, followed by the biopic Taanaji – The Unsung Warrior. Once they are done with their individual film commitments, will they collaborate on Luv’s film.

The yet-to-be titled film is a dramatic love story. Talking about the same, Ranbir recently revealed to a news agency, “Luv Ranjan’s film will happen after I finish Brahmastra and Shamshera. It is a dramatic love story. So I am really looking forward to that. It is something which Luv hasn’t done before, something which even Ajay sir and I haven’t done before.”
