Arjun Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Sanjay Dutt starrer Ashutosh Gowariker's next directorial titled Panipat has begun rolling from Friday. Arjun took to his Twitter account to share the news along with a teaser poster of the film. He wrote along side, "Embarking on a journey like never before... with Ashu sir & our entire team. #Panipat #PanipatShootBeginsToday"
Kriti Sanon too shared the poster writing, "Our #Panipat journey begins today. Super excited for this new chapter.. gonna join you guys in 2days.. lets do this!
#PanipatShootBeginsToday"
The period drama based on the third Battle of Panipat, is slated to hit the theatres on december 6, 2019, as confirmed in the poster. As per reports, the film will deal with what led to the third Battle of Panipat.
While Sanjay is reportedly playing the character of an Afghan King, not much is known about the character of Kriti Sanon and Arjun Kapoor. Speaking about the film with PTI during IIFA 2018, Arjun had shared, "It is exciting and opportune time for me in my career. Somebody like Ashutosh Gowariker, who has achieved fantastic heights, has chosen me for 'Panipat'. His body of work speaks for him. I have taken it up as a challenge to be able to do a period film because you should do it with the best people and there is nobody better then Gowariker sir."
On the other hand, Kriti is pretty kicked about getting to share the screen space with Sanjay Dutt. She had earlier tld IANS in an interview, "I am very excited, although more of my scenes are going to be with Arjun Kapoor, but to share the same work space with Sanjay sir is going to be great."
