Batti Gul Meter Chalu starring Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor is all set to release on 14th September. The shoot of the film will soon wrap up with a song in Mumbai. Apart from Mumbai, the major parts of the film were shot in Tehri, Uttarakhand. The film directed by Shree Narayan Singh is a social drama based on the struggles of a common man against the power distribution companies over exorbitant electricity bills.


Interestingly, forlorn location nestled 100 kilometers away from the Uttarakhand village has apparently caught the attention of the unit, that kicked off a 15-day shooting schedule in June. A production hand reveals, "The shoot could have been conducted in Mumbai, but Shree [Narayan Singh, director] wanted to ensure the scene looked authentic. The unit will need to travel for a couple of hours daily to reach the spot, but Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor are willing to do so."


As many as 20 locations were scouted during the recce. However, it is the absence of electric poles for a vast stretch of land that seemed to have made this location suitable for the sequence. "It's a sparsely populated area, which will help them capture the lush landscape," adds the source.


Batti Gul Meter Chalu is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Shree Narayan Singh, Nitin Chandrachud, Kusum Arora and Nishant Pitti.
