Ranbir Kapoor was ecstatic when he had launched his production company, called
Picture Shuru Productions, in collaboration with
Anurag Basu. However, the very first venture of the production house called ‘
Jagga Jasoos’ has been running into trouble over and over again.
Earlier,
Govinda who was roped in for an important character of the movie walked out of the movie, leaving the makers in trouble. If his exit was not enough to delay the shoot of the film, another problem has now surfaced, owing to which almost half of the movie has to be shot again. The reason behind this delay is said to be the change in the storyline of the movie.
Apparently, the movie was planned to be a musical narrative, but given that Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s
Mirziya, starring
Anil Kapoor’s son Harshvardhan and Shabana Azmi’s niece Saiyami Kher, is also running on the same line, director Anurag Basu has decided to change the screenplay.
Another issue with the movie is the role of Ranbir’s father, for which no actor seems to be finalized as of yet. We have also heard that Govinda was roped in for the same role but walked out at the last moment, as he didn’t want to play Ranbir’s father. If reports are to be believed, Anil Kapoor and
Amitabh Bachchan have now been approached for the role. However, if things don’t get finalized with them, we believe that Ranbir’s real life father, actor
Rishi Kapoor could be a considerable option too.
Although the last time the real life father-son duo played their roles on camera, the resultant movie
Besharam was a big dud, both commercially and critically.
