Sooraj Pancholi-Athiya Shetty Starrer HERO To Release On Valentines Day?

Wednesday, 23rd July 2014, 06:53 PM IST Nikhil Advani’s remake of 1983 love story ‘Hero’ has just got more romantic. Speculations are rife that the Salman Khan production venture starring Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty will be releasing on Valentine’s Day. To add to the romance quotient, the unit of Nikhil Advani's‘Hero’ took off to the virgin locales of Romania for eight days to shoot an ultra-romantic song.
A source close to the film informs, “Nikhil wanted to originally shoot the song in Paris. But of late, there has been too much of Paris in Bollywood. ‘Queen’ was shot there and we hear Sai Kabir is shooting his next film there. So the novelty value is lost. The location where the song was shot in Romania has never been seen in any film from any part of the world.” It is being said that the film will open on Valentine’s Day though there has been no official statement from the makers.The source further added, “Nikhil Advani and Salman Khan feel the chemistry between Sooraj and Athiya is so articulate that ‘Hero’ would be the best Valentine's Day romantic film. Also, the two releases scheduled for Valentine's week so far are not ideally romantic films. One is Dibakar Banerjee's‘Detective Byomkesh Bakshy’ which is not a romantic film at all. The other is debutant director Vikramjit Singh's dark thriller ‘Roy’ starring Arjun Rampal and Jacqueline Fernandez with Ranbir Kapoor in a guest appearance. So there is really no competition for ‘Hero’ for Valentine's Day.” |
