'Shamshera': Ranbir Kapoor and Vaani Kapoor head to Ladakh for the film

Ranbir Kapoor and Vaani Kapoor have finally made their way to Ladakh to start filming for YRF's big-budget action entertainer 'Shamshera'. This also happens to be the first film to be shot in Ladakh after it was proclaimed a Union Territory!

“'Shamshera' will have the most breath-taking visual experience that audiences have seen on screen and the director (Karan Malhotra) has left no stones unturned to make his film a spectacle! He was certain that he wanted to shoot some of the most crucial portions of the film in Ladakh because it would add to the visual appeal of the film. Ranbir and Vaani have both left Mumbai for this shooting schedule,” says an informer close to the project.

“It is going to be an intense schedule with some stunning visuals needing to be shot. Everything about this project has been kept under wraps and looks like the details of this schedule is known only to the crew that’s filming this portion in Ladakh. The shooting of 'Shamshera' has gone perfectly so far and given that it is looking to transport audiences back to a period, huge sets have been built to recreate an era where Ranbir is pitted against Sanjay Dutt. The Ladakh schedule, however, will have portions of Ranbir and Vaani only,” the source adds.

The film is touted to be a high octane entertainer that is set in the heartland of India. Not only does it promise jaw-dropping action sequences but it'll also show us a never seen before version of Ranbir Kapoor. Sanjay Dutt plays Ranbir’s arch-enemy in the film and will portray the role of a ruthless, merciless villain who is bound to have an epic showdown with Ranbir. Vaani plays the role of an exquisitely desirable and sought after travelling performer.
