Mumbai: The first still from the sets of Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor starrer Dhadak is out! Directed by Shashank Khaitan, Dhadak is the official remake of Nagraj Manjule’s Marathi blockbuster Sairat starring newcomers Rinku Rajguru and Akash Thosar.

Sairat was a love story between an upper-caste girl, Archana (Rinku Rajguru), and a fisherman's son, Prashant (Akash Thosar).
Talking about how similar or different Dhadak will be, Khaitan said, “The basic premise is of differences in caste, honour killing and what it means to survive in that world and I feel that is the conflict that is alive all across India, you will hear stories like that.”
"So in that sense, 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," Khaitan added during an interview with PTI.
Janhvi and Ishaan are all set to recreate the Sairat magic in Khaitan’s Dhadak which is slated to release on July 6, 2018.
The film has been jointly produced by Zee Studious and Dharma Productions.
For uninitiated, Janhvi is veteran actress Sridevi and Boney Kapoor’s elder daughter while Ishaan Khatter is Shahid Kapoor’s half-brother. Both these youngsters hail from film families and have acting in their genes. Ishaan had already made headlines soon after he was roped in by internationally acclaimed Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi for a film titled Beyond the Clouds.
