According to a Bollywood Hungama report, the Kartik Aaryan and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer movie was planned to be shot in Delhi, but a thick layer of smog made it difficult for the team members to breathe properly, and capture good shots.
Reportedly, the filming of the movie remains stalled until weather conditions improve in the capital.
