It’s proving to be an eventful week for Junaid Khan. Yesterday, mid-day reported that his maiden film Maharaj was being lined up for a June 14 première on Netflix (Maharaj gets a date, May 27). Now, we’ve heard that on Monday, the actor kicked off the shoot of his next with director Advait Chandan in Mira Road. The yet-untitled romantic comedy is an adaptation of the Tamil hit, Love Today (2022), and will see Junaid romancing Khushi Kapoor.
While the movie was originally supposed to roll in June, Chandan apparently advanced the date. A source tells us, “Sunday was the first day of shoot, but Junaid and Khushi started their portions only on Monday. Since Junaid will be busy promoting Maharaj next month, the director started filming a few days earlier. Over the coming three weeks, Advait and his unit will shoot across Mumbai. The banquet hall of Seven Eleven Club in Mira Road is the primary location for the next few days.”
