The scenic town of Kasol, Himachal Pradesh, is currently buzzing with activity as actors Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, and Shalini Pandey have commenced shooting for their upcoming film, "Rahu Ketu." Following the completion of the Manali leg of the shoot, the team has moved to this new location to capture the remaining portions of the film.
Pulkit Samrat, who recently wrapped up shooting for "Glory," has dived headfirst into this new project. A leaked video from the sets of "Rahu Ketu" in Kasol has already created a stir online, generating considerable excitement among fans. The video, initially shared by an Instagram user, offers a candid glimpse of Pulkit deeply engrossed in a scene, further fueling anticipation for the film.
Pulkit himself has been actively sharing updates from the shoot on his social media. In a playful Instagram story, he asked his followers to guess his location, with most correctly identifying Kasol. He also posted a video of the picturesque surroundings, captioning it, "Not a place but a pause. Kasol is where the mind unpacks and the heart re-dreams!" Earlier, the actor had shared a post featuring Shalini Pandey and Varun Sharma, offering a sneak peek into the on-set camaraderie and a heartfelt clip of the puja ceremony that marked the beginning of filming. The caption read, "Taare bhi line pe lag gaye… kyunki hamare Rahu-Ketu bilkul sahi jagah hain! Tayyar ho jao, hum tumhari orbit mein entry maarne wale hain! #RahuKetu Filming begins… see you at the movies!”
"Rahu Ketu" marks Pulkit's first on-screen collaboration with Shalini Pandey. However, he has previously shared screen space with Varun Sharma in the widely popular "Fukrey" franchise. Varun has expressed his excitement about working with Pulkit again, stating that being back on set with him feels like a homecoming. He also described the film as a special one with a fun story to bring to the screen, stating that he is naturally inclined towards the comedy genre.
The film is directed by Vipul Vig, known for penning the "Fukrey" franchise. With his signature quirky humor, Vipul is expected to infuse "Rahu Ketu" with unexpected twists and turns. Backed by Zee Studios, the film is slated for release in 2025. The film is touted as a high-concept drama.
The commencement of the Kasol schedule has been met with enthusiasm from fans and industry colleagues alike. Richa Chadha, Pulkit and Varun's co-star from "Fukrey," commented on Pulkit's post, saying, "cute plz enjoy and love to brother chooches." As the filming progresses in the stunning locales of Kasol, more updates and glimpses from the set are eagerly awaited.
