Mumbai:
Actors Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar's Manmarziyan has been put on hold with rains playing a spoil sport for the makers.
Producer Aanand L Rai, who announced I>Manmarziyan with Ayushmann<, Vicky Kaushal and Bhumi under Color Yellow Productions, has now decided to put the film on the back-burner for the time being.
According to sources, almost half of the film had to be shot in northern India, during the winters but since it has been raining across the country, the schedule has been put on hold.
Manmarziyan stars Ayushmann and Bhumi, who also featured in Dum Laga Ke Haisha.
"The filmmaker is also busy with the pre-production of his next directorial venture with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and has mutually decided along with the cast and crew to put the film on the back-burner for the moment," said sources.
"Mr Rai never compromises on his vision and on the quality of his films. A major portion of Manmarziyan had to be captured in the winter in northern India and hence it has been pushed to a later date. In the meanwhile, Mr Rai has decided to entirely focus on his directorial with Shah Rukh Khan," said sources.
Earlier, Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana director Sameer Sharma was involved with Manmarziyan.
But due to creative differences between him and Mr Rai, Mr Sharma dropped out of the project.
Mr Rai then roped in Nil Battey Sannata director Ashwiny-Iyer Tiwari for the film.
