Bhushan Kumar, chairman and managing director of entertainment conglomerate T-Series, says actors Varun Dhawan and Katrina Kaif will make a sizzling pair in Remo D’souza’s next dance film.

The movie will also star choreographer-actor Prabhudheva besides Dharmesh Yelande, Raghav Juyal and Punit Pathak who had featured in ABCD 2.

The film is expected to go into production this year and is slated to release in India on November 8, 2019.

“At the start of the year, I had said 2018 is going to be a landmark year for T-Series. And I knew I alone cannot make things happen. So, when Remo agreed to bring his vision to India’s biggest dance film ever, we were over the moon,” Kumar said .

“And now with Varun and Katrina on board as the lead pair, can it get any better? Yes, it can because not only is this the first time they are pairing up together, they are also superb dancers and will make a sizzling pair. So, we’re in for a visual treat unlike anything we’ve ever seen. Even I cannot wait to see the movie,” he added.

D’Souza, who is busy with Race 3 at the moment, is excited about the collaboration.

“Isn’t it just appropriate that a film about music and dance is produced by the man heading the biggest music company in Bollywood? And I get to direct — Varun, one of the best dancers today, and Katrina, who has shown us she can shake a mean leg,” D’Souza said.

Dhawan is confident that Kaif “will bring her A game” to the movie.

“I need to get back into shape. Bhushan is not only a strong producer who has over a period of time built a great marketing and distribution machinery, he also contributes a lot creatively specially in music department,” he said.

Kaif said she “can’t wait to start this journey”.
