Farhan Akhtar Confirms 'Jee Le Zaraa' Back On Track With Original Trio As Production Nears Start

The director says the long-running date juggle is resolved, moving the film from limbo into active planning.

Overview

  • Farhan Akhtar says dates for Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif are now sorted and the team will start soon.
  • He confirms the female-led road film proceeds with the originally announced cast, ending speculation about replacements or shelving.
  • No firm shooting schedule has been disclosed, with outlets reporting that preparations are underway but a start date is pending.
  • Coverage cites years of delays from clashing calendars—particularly Chopra’s international work—and an extended search for suitably prominent male co-stars.
  • Akhtar described the process as “traumatic” and said he turned down acting offers to focus on the project, which he co-developed with writers Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti.
