'Takht': After Jaisalmer, Karan Johar to recce in Europe for Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt's film
After a long wait, Karan Johar finally has some good news for fans who have been eagerly anticipating his magnum opus Takht to go on floors. 

The director recently with his entire crew went to Jaisalmer on a recce for the film. 

Karan took to Instagram on Sunday and shared stories from the location. 

As per reports, Karan will wrap up the recce in Rajasthan in a few days and then jet off to Europe to check out the location for the shooting of the film.

Takht, starring Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor and Anil Kapoor in the lead roles, was previously scheduled to go on floors in August-September 2019 but will go on the floors in March. 

Karan and his team will reportedly fly to several European locations, including Italy and France, on January 18 for another round of recce. 

"He'd always planned to spend January on the final round of recce and will be exploring locations similar to the landscape of Rajasthan in countries across Europe. Massive sets will be erected everywhere—from Jaisalmer to Europe—for which a mammoth budget has been earmarked."

Karan's Takht has been described as the “epic battle for the majestic Mughal throne”. 

It's a tale of two warring brothers, based on the fight for the throne between Shah Jahan's two sons, Aurangzeb and Dara Shukoh played by Ranveer Singh and Vicky Kaushal. 

The film also features Kareena Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar in pivotal roles, with Anil Kapoor as the Mughal patriarch, Shah Jahan. 

The film will be shot in a start to finish schedule and is targeting a 2021 release.
