Karan Johar's upcoming war film Shershaah has paved its way as one of the highly awaited projects of 2020. Starring rumoured couple Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani who are protege of the filmmaker, the venture has garnered the right amount of attention ever since it was announced. Now, after having wrapped the film in Mumbai last year, reports suggest that Sidharth and Kiara will be heading to Lonavala to shoot for portions of a song.
As per the reports of a leading daily, the source close to the film informed that portions of a love song will be shot with the actors. The location will be shown as Palampur, the hometown of late Captain Vikram Batra, on whom the film is based on. It will be a one-day schedule. Kiara and Sidharth recently returned from a vacation that they reportedly took together to South Africa. The actress then headed to Dubai to shoot for a song for Laxmmi Bomb with Akshay Kumar.
