Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan starrer Simmba begins shoot, to release on December 28

Kedarnath was earlier being produced by KriArj Entertainment but now Ronnie Screwvala has taken the reins of that project. Meanwhile, Sara Ali Khan’s team allotted her dates that were earlier reserved for Kedarnath to Simmba’s team. It is said that the Abhishek Kapoor was keen on launching Sara and wanted Kedarnath to release as her debut film. The matter was taken to court but was resolved after the two teams got together and amicably resolved the issue.
