Kartik Aaryan’s Captain India To Begin Filming Soon

In 2021, Captain India was introduced with Kartik Aaryan attached as the lead and Hansal Mehta set to direct. However, progress stalled for the next five years, leaving industry insiders wondering about the film’s fate. Now, Mid-Day reported that the aviation drama is finally resuming production this summer. The first look of Captain India was unveiled in July 2021.

An insider shared, “The makers are eyeing a window between May and July for filming.” With Hansal Mehta no longer involved, Shimit Amin, known for Chak De! India (2007) has taken over as director. Recently, there were rumours that Amin had also exited the project. However, a source close to the production clarified, “The delays caused those rumours. The film is on track, and Shimit is directing it. Kartik is currently shooting for another T-Series film, and once that’s done, he’ll begin Captain India.”
