Mumbai: The makers of Sanjay Dutt and Ranbir Kapoor's upcoming action-adventure drama Shamshera were all set to wrap the impending patchwork shoot by early next month. Due to growing cases of COVID-19, the team is now compelled to postpone the shooting schedule by a fortnight.
According to reports, Aditya Chopra's banner Yash Raj Films was looking forward to completing the shooting of Shamshera in the early weeks of August. Sanjay and Ranbir were supposed to resume work at YRF Studios from August 1. Ashok Dubey, General Secretary of FWICE, however, confirmed it to a leading daily that the film's schedule has been pushed.

Shamshera shoot will now resume from August 15. The makers took the call keeping in mind the safety of cast and crew amid COVID-19 scare.
As YRF turns 50 in 2020, the banner had planned to roll out a star-filled line up to celebrate the golden jubilee year. With Prithviraj and Jayeshbhai Jordaar, Shamshera is one of the lavishly produced films by YRF which were earlier set to release in 2020. In the period drama, Ranbir will be seen playing a dacoit. Directed by Agneepath director Karan Malhotra, the film stars Vaani Kapoor as Ranbir's love interest.
