Summary
- Actress Shraddha Kapoor sustained an injury during a Lavani dance sequence.
- The filming of her upcoming biographical drama 'Eetha' has been temporarily halted.
- Randeep Hooda has been cast as the male lead opposite Kapoor in the film.
The production of Shraddha Kapoor's biographical drama, 'Eetha,' has been temporarily suspended following an injury sustained by the actress during a demanding Lavani dance sequence. Kapoor, portraying the renowned folk artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar, experienced the mishap while executing rapid choreography for the film. The injury has caused an immediate halt to the Nashik schedule, with the production now expected to resume in two weeks.
Despite the setback, Kapoor initially suggested continuing with close-up shots, leading the team to shift to a set in Madh Island for emotional scenes. However, as her pain worsened, a full production pause became necessary. This delay impacts the filming of scenes also featuring Randeep Hooda, who was recently announced as the male lead.
'Eetha' chronicles the life of Vithabai Narayangaonkar, a celebrated Maharashtrian folk performer known for her significant contributions to Lavani and Tamasha. The film aims to capture her artistic legacy and powerful stage presence. The makers are optimistic about the casting of Hooda and Kapoor, believing their versatility aligns with the director's vision.
