As the movie is still left with some scenes to be shot, the makers are therefore planning to recommence its shoot in double shifts from October and want to wrap it by December. This film got delayed a couple of times and has 26 days of shoot left up to this time.

According to the report by Mid-Day, the shoot can commence only if the COVID-19 crisis comes relatively under control. Also, Amitabh Bachchan has a pivotal role in the movie and his presence on the set is required. But as the government has restricted people above 65 years of age from working, the makers might try to reverse the decision.

A source told the portal, “If the crisis is relatively under control, and things go as planned, the film will go back on floors in October. Ayan has broken down the shoot into two shifts — 9 am to 2 pm, followed by another from 4 pm to 9 pm. There will be two separate minimal crews for the stints, with each unit adhering to on-set safety guidelines. Since producer Karan Johar is eyeing a June 2021 release, Ayan wants to wrap up the shoot latest by December."

The report added that the upcoming shoots will focus more on dialogue-based scenes and also, Ranbir will shoot for a song in the process.
