Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra to immortalize Uttarakhand’s village!

The lead pair of Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor, are shooting in areas that would transform into an ambitious dam.

For years, films have immortalized people with extraordinary untold stories and celebrated their life, and now it seems like Yash Raj Films’ Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar will do that very same thing for a part of  Uttarakhand that are set to be part of an ambitious dam project.

By doing so, Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra’s film will become the only one that will capture how Jhulpur and Jhulaghat looked before the dam is constructed on the villages, thus changing their existence forever.

A source informs, “Arjun and Parineeti are currently shooting in a village at the Indo-Nepal border, which will soon be immersed underwater. Dibakar Banerjee’s directorial venture will end up being a unique visual record of this quaint border village called Jhulaghat. The Kali River runs through it and there is a huge plan to build the Pancheswar dam that will forever change the topography of Jhulpur and Jhulaghat. The memories will remain alive and will be captured forever in Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar.”

The informer adds, “The locals are really excited that the memory of the village will live with them. They have been huge supporters of the film crew as they realise this is going to be the first and the last film to be shot in Jhulaghat. They want to live this experience that two of Bollywood’s biggest stars were shooting in their village.”

While this small, beautiful slice of rural India will have to make way for development, its existence on celluloid will always remain a sentimental reference point. The entertaining thriller, Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, is set to release on August 3, 2018.
