Shraddha Kapoor Resumes Shooting For Laxman Utekar's Eetha After Injury Break

After a weeks-long hiatus due to an injury, Shraddha Kapoor has resumed filming for the biopic Eetha, based on the life of Tamasha artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar. Director Laxman Utekar had initially called for a five-week break after Shraddha suffered a toe fracture in November 2025. Following a period of rest, the actress is back on set, returning to bring Vithabai Bhau Mang Narayangaonkar’s inspiring story to life.

Sources told Mid-Day that the team has been shooting at Marve Beach near Malad, where the production design team has built a village set. “Among the few sets that were built on the site in November, one reflected the interior of a house, and another, a bustling village. Laxman kept the sets standing until Shraddha healed. Now, they have resumed the shoot of a dance number that sees Shraddha’s character performing on a stage in the middle of a mela. Over 800 background artistes, who will be seen as people milling about at the mela, report to the set every day. Vaibhavi Merchant is choreographing the fast-paced number,” revealed a source.

As reported, after completing this segment by February, Shraddha will take a 10-day break to focus on shedding weight. The source said, “Shraddha will use the time to shed weight. Soon after, she will shoot the portions that chronicle the protagonist in her 20s and early 30s. Originally, the project was to be wrapped by February, but due to the fracture and the subsequent delay, the director is aiming to reach the finish line by April.”

Set against the backdrop of 1940 to 1990, Eetha will explore Vithabai Narayangaonkar’s extraordinary journey in the world of Tamasha, her rise to fame, and her subsequent financial struggles. Currently, the team is filming the scenes depicting Narayangaonkar in her 40s, a phase in which Shraddha has reportedly gained weight to portray the character authentically.

Post Eetha, Shraddha will be shooting for Naagin.
