Pippa featuring Ishaan Khatter and Mrunal Thakur will go on floors in September

Pippa featuring Ishaan Khatter and Mrunal Thakur will see the pair together for the first time. The film helmed by Raja Krishna Menon was announced a few months ago. But the shooting could not be started because of the pandemic. However,  now as the things are calm, the film makers are looking for the best month for starting the shoot. The story of Pippa revolves around the time of India-Pakistan war of 1971. And now we hear that this Ishaan and Mrunal starrer will go on floors in September and script reading sessions are set to begin in mid-August.

According to a source, “The film, set against the backdrop of the 1971 India-Pakistan war, will require multiple levels of preparation. The actors’ reading sessions will begin by mid-August.” 

The source added, “They not only have to fully familiarise themselves with the Battle of Garibpur that forms the crux of the story, but also have to physically prepare from the first week of August to do justice to the combat and war sequences on camera.”
