New Delhi: It was a casting coup when Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, and Alia Bhatt came on board for a road trip film titled 'Jee Le Zaraa'. The film was announced in 2021, on 20 years of Farhan Akhtar’s directorial debut ‘Dil Chahta Hai’. Since then, there has been no new development about the film, and there were speculations around it. But it seems the film will go on the floor soon. 

Farhan Akhtar, who will be directing the film, has started scouting for locations for the Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif starrer. The actor-director took to social media and shared a picture of himself as he started looking for locations in Rajasthan. He posted a photo in which he stood in a desert. 
 
Farhan could be seen dresssed in a jacket, shorts, and boots. He captioned the post: "Searching for gold. #location scout #Jee Le Zaraa #Rajasthan."

Reacting to the post, Alia commented: "Can't waittttt." 
 
Ritesh Sidhwani wrote: "And he is back on the director's chair." 
 
Farhan's last directed film was 'Don 2' starring Shah Rukh Khan that released in 2011. 

In a conversation with PTI, Priyanka Chopra had revealed how she thought of 'Jee Le Zaraa', and what followed was a long telephonic chat with her friends Katrina and Alia. 

"I called up Alia and Katrina, this is before Farhan or anybody came (on board). I called the girls first. I was sitting at home and I wanted to do a Hindi movie. But I wanted it to be on the terms of women," she was quoted as saying by PTI. 

"I have spent a long time in my career where we have always been secondary to men. The heroes decide where the movie is shot, who is cast and what's happening. It is boring. We are living in a time where women need to be able to have agency in their lives,"  she had told PTI. 

'Jee Le Zaraa' is written by Zoya Akhtar, Reema Kagti along with Farhan. It is produced by Reema, Zoya, Ritesh Sidhwani, and Farhan.
