Amrita Singh-Arjun Kapoor to play mum and son, again

After playing a quintessential Punjabi mother in 2 States, Amrita Singh will do so again for Anees Bazmee’s next film titled Mubaraka. When contacted, the filmmaker confirmed that the actress will be seen playing a feisty Punjabi woman in the film.  What’s more, she’ll be seen playing mommy to the same son — Arjun Kapoor.

Informs a source close to the project, “The makers of the film were looking for a strong personality to play a powerful role and collectively decided on Amrita. When Amrita heard the script, she too liked it instantly and enquired about the shoot schedule. Since her dates were free, the film was signed soon after. Arjun and Amrita have quite a few scenes together.”

The film will go on floors next month and the entire cast will begin shooting in Mumbai.
