Kiara Advani as Preeti

Production

After the success of the Telugu film Arjun Reddy (2017), its writer and director Sandeep Vanga wanted to remake it in Hindi with Ranveer Singh. When it did not work out, he approached Shahid Kapoor. However, producers Murad Khetani and Ashwin Varde of Cine1 Studios, who acquired the remake rights for Hindi, wanted Arjun Kapoor to play the male lead. Disappointed, Vanga said,"I've come to know that the remake rights of Arjun Reddy have been sold and it would star Arjun Kapoor. I am caught in a dilemma, as I've already locked Shahid for the role. It's a very embarrassing situation for me. I don't know how I'll face Shahid."^[1]

In April 2018, however, it was officially announced that Shahid Kapoor would star, with Vanga returning as director.^[2] Bhushan and Krishan Kumar of T-Series Films co-produced the film.^[3] Vanga was confident that the remake would be even more hard hitting: "When I made Arjun Reddy, I wasn't sure where to draw the line in terms of representation of certain things. I don't think I'd have to restrict myself when it comes to the Hindi version. I believe I'll have more freedom in Bollywood."^[2] Tara Sutaria was initially announced as the female lead.^[4] However, due to the postponement of her debut release Student of the Year 2, she exited the film.^[5] The makers then hired Kiara Advani to play the role of Preeti,^[6] after Vanga saw her performance in M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016).^[7] According to Vanga, "Kiara epitomises the female character in the film to the T. She has the perfect combination of innocence (in terms of looks) and maturity (in terms of performance) that's so important for the character".^[8]

The film will feature Kapoor sporting four different looks as a college boy, a professional, a self-destructive man and eventually a rehabilitated man.^[9] The makers considered beginning the shoot in August, but it was delayed to September as Vanga wanted Kapoor to grow his beard more for the role.^[10] Principal photography eventually began on 21 October 2018 at Mumbai,^[11] and the title Kabir Singh was revealed on 25 October.^[9]

Release

Kabir Singh is scheduled to be released on 21 June 2019.^[12]
