A source reveals, “The shoot began late last week. Meanwhile, filming of Excel Entertainment’s Yudhra, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Malavika Mohanan, is continuing in Marol. Yash Raj Films had called off the shoot of their maiden web series, The Railway Men, in December when the cases started showing an uptick. Now, the team feels confident to pick up where they had left off. Stricter protocols have been put in place to protect the cast and crew, including regular testing.”

The source adds, “Most big-ticket ventures, including director Nitesh Tiwari’s project with Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, and Kartik Aaryan’s next with director Sameer Vidwans will roll in March. Vicky Kaushal-starrer Sam Bahadur too is slated to kick off then.”
