Vijay Varma has proved himself as an emerging star in Bollywood industry and his role in Gully Boy was very well appreciated and got critically acclaimed too.
Alia and Vijay have been locked for the deal, although they still haven’t signed the contract but that’ll be happening soon. The actresses’ mother part has still not been locked for the film and we can suggest a few names for the same including veteran actresses like Rekha, Neena Gupta, Kirron Kher, Tanvi Azmi, Seema Pahwa, Supriya Pathak and Ratna Pathak.
For that matter, Soni Razdan who happens to be Alia’s real-life mother and has already played the role of her mother in reel life in Meghna Gulzar’s Raazi can also be an APT choice for the same.
Jasmeet K Reen who has written screenplays for films like Pati Patni Aur Woh and Force 2 will be making her directorial debut with Darlings.
Alia Bhatt will begin shooting for this after completing her ongoing commitments including Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra and SS Rajamouli’s RRR.
We can’t wait to see Alia and Vijay Varma working their magic again on the big screens.
