Kartik Aaryan’s upcoming film, ‘Captain India,’ starts principal photography in London in September and is expected to wrap by the end of October, according to multiple reports. Variety says the shoot is set to begin this September with production lasting through late October.
The projects’ director is Shimit Amin, noted for directing ‘Chak De! India.’ Times of India adds that ‘Captain India’ marks Amin’s return to feature filmmaking after about 18 years since ‘Rocket Singh.’ The films reportedly draw on inspiration from a real-life evacuation of Indian citizens from a war-torn country, with Times of India describing this as the basis for the story concept.
While both outlets agree on the London schedule and Amin’s involvement, Times of India also reports a specific start date of September 1 and mentions a planned theatrical release date of August 13, 2027, details not included in Variety’s excerpt.
