So what if actors cannot hold a physical reading session together. In the age of technology, virtual is the way, and actors, Randeep Hooda and Ileana D’Cruz took its proper use. On Thursday, both of them held a virtual script reading session for their next comedy film, Unfair and Lovely.
The film is going to be a story about a dusky girl, living in the state of Haryana. She has to face several prejudices and biases because of her dark skin. How she challenges society berating her forms the crux of the story.
Sony Pictures Films India and Movie Tunnel Productions are jointly producing the film. With the film the writer of popular movies such as Mubarakan and Saand Ki Aankh, Balwinder Singh Janjua is making his directorial debut.
Randeep and Ileana both posted about the virtual script reading session on Instagram. Randeep captioned the photo as “Virtual script reading before the shoot begins. Hello, new normal!” and posted the following photo :
