Shashank Khaitan, who has directed Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhani and Badrinath Ki Dulhania, says that Ishaan and Janhvi are very hardworking. "Janhvi and Ishaan are great people and are very hardworking. These are the two things that I always look for in actors," he told news agency PTI.
Dhadak, as mentioned before, is a remake of Sairat, a Marathi blockbuster whose lead actress also won a National Award. Shashank Khaitan told news agency PTI that the basic premise of the two films is same but the setting of Dhadak is different. "The basic premise (of Dhadak and Sairat) is same. But there are variations. My story is based on another set up. It is (set) in Rajasthan. It comes with its own challenges, conflicts and style of a love story. We are adapting Sairat into the world that we want to," he said.
Excited for Janhvi's Dhadak, just as we are?
