An official statement regarding a Hindi version of the well-known Hollywood film The Intern, starring Rishi Kapoor, was made by Deepika Padukone in 2021. Amitabh Bachchan's casting for the film was made public after the tragic death of the iconic actor. However, since then, no further details have been given.
Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro starred in key roles in the first The Intern movie. Deepika is reportedly in the process of scheduling the film, despite reports that the Indian version has been scrapped.
A reputable news outlet said that Deepika Padukone will be both a performer and a producer in her second production project, The Intern. Unexpected events, however, have caused delays for the film. This follows Chhapaak's prior work.
In addition, the movie is slated to begin production in the first quarter of 2024, after the release of Fighter, starring Anil Kapoor and Hrithik Roshan with Deepika. According to the source, if all goes as planned, the movie's filming would start in January or February of the following year. While Deepika is scheduled to be part of the initial shooting schedule, it is unclear when Big B will start shooting.
The first look poster for the 2021 version of The Intern suggested that Sunil Kheterpal, Warner Brothers India, Ka Productions, and Azure Entertainment would collaborate on the film. Akshat Ghildail has turned the movie's script into a film. The movie's initial release date was set for the summer of 2022.
In the meantime, Deepika Padukone will next be seen with Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor, and Karan Singh Grover in Siddharth Anand's aerial action movie Fighter. The release date is set for January 25, 2024.
