Takht: Karan Johar kickstars the recce for the period drama in Rajasthan and we can't contain our excitement!

Filmmaker Karan Johar's upcoming period drama Takht has become one of the highly anticipated and trending films of recent times. With a stellar cast including Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Anil Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, the Mughal era drama has grabbed eyeballs of avid cinema watchers. Takht is said to release in 2020 and the team has already started preparing for the ambitious project. Now, as January is here, Karan took the preparations a level ahead and stepped out of the city for a recce. Well, yes and we have proof.

Karan, on Sunday, on his Instagram stories, shared selfies and pictures from his tour to Rajasthan where the film is said to be shot. With his crew in attendance, the filmmaker seems to be all ready to take Takht on floors soon.
