One of the most-awaited debut of 2018 is Salman Khan's brother-in-law Aayush Sharma's debut film, titled 'Loveratri,' along with the newcomer Warina Hussain. Produced under the banner of Salman Khan's Salman Khan Films', the film's trailer unveiled on Monday in the presence of the lead star cast and its crew.
Watch the trailer here:
The film is set against the backdrop of Gujrat. The romantic drama unfolds the love story of the leading couple over the span of Navratri. In an earlier interview with mid-day, Aayush Sharma spoke about Salman, 'bhai's teaching techniques. The debut actor stated, "One night, after the shoot of Bajrangi Bhaijaan, the stuntman, on Salman bhai's request, taught me how to roll down the sand dunes and perform some stunts. When Salman bhai and I were on the sand dunes the next day, he pushed me down without any warning. As I went down tossing and turning, I kept wondering what just happened."
Turns out, Khan repeated the act several times, until the debutant actor understood it was his way of testing his protégé. "When I was pushed down the third time, I rolled and landed properly, based on what I was taught the night before. Salman bhai then told me that he wants me to be prepared at all times to perform my own stunts. He pointed out that it was essential to know how to land after a fall, so that I don't hurt myself when a stunt goes awry."
Loveratri is also a directorial debut of Abhiraj Minawala. The romantic drama will mark the fifth venture of Salman Khan Films. Loveratri is written by Naren Bhatt who is based out of Mumbai and was born in Bhavnagar.
Directed by Abhiraj Minawala, Loveratri is produced by Salman Khan under the banner of Salman Khan Films is slated to release on October 5, 2018.
This is the year of debutants in Bollywood. From Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter's 'Dhadak' to Sara Ali Khan's upcoming 'Kedarnath' and 'Simmba', everyone's waiting to watch out for. There's also filmmaker Anil Sharma's son Utkarsh Sharma foraying into Bollywood with 'Genius'. Too much competition!
