Anurag resumes ‘Dobaaraa’ shoot
Director took to his social media handles and shared a BTS still from ‘Dobaaraa’
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap on Saturday shared a BTS picture from the sets of his upcoming movie Dobaaraa, restarting the shooting of the film after a raid was conducted at his property by the Income Tax Department on Wednesday.
The Ugly director took to his social media handles and shared a BTS still with Taapsee Pannu from the sets of their outing Dobaaraa, announcing that they have resumed the movie’s shoot. He wrote, “And we restart #DoBaaraa... with all our love to all the haters...”
In the picture, Pannu can be seen smiling candidly, looking stunning in her light-coloured sari, as Anurag playfully sits in her lap, with both of them posing for the camera.
Dobaaraa marks the duo’s third collaboration after 2018’s hit Manmarziyaan
and biographical drama Saand Ki Aankh,
which had Anurag on board as a producer.
The movie will be produced by Cult Movies — a division under Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, along with Sunir Kheterpal’s ATHENA and Gaurav Bose’s The Vermillion World Production.
This post from Kashyap came hours after Pannu ended her silence on social media regarding the IT raids, writing she was not “so sasti [cheap] anymore”.
The actor and director resumed the shooting of their upcoming movie nearly three days after the Income Tax Department on March 3 began raiding entities connected to Taapsee and Anurag as well as his partners in the production house
Phantom Films including film producer Vikas Bahl.
Raids were carried out across 30 locations in Mumbai and Pune. Reliance Entertainment group CEO Shibhasish Sarkar and some executives of celebrity and talent management companies KWAN and Exceed were also covered.
Phantom Films was established by Kashyap, director Vikramaditya Motwane, producer Madhu Mantena and the former head of UTV Spotboy, Vikas Bahl, in 2011 before being dissolved in 2018.
