Zoya Akhtar's next film stars Ranveer and Priyanka as siblings. Anushka and Farhan are their respective love interests. From what I've read, the film is about a dysfunctional Punjabi family and explores the differential treatment of male and female siblings in a family. The premise seems promising, so I hope Zoya displays some of the sensitivity and insight that she showed in Luck by Chance.

A new Zoya film is always something to look forward to! Farhan tweeted that the movie already has a release date of June 2015..
On a slightly unrelated note - does Zoya have a penchant for naming her films after songs? The title ZNMD was a line in a song in "Rock on", and "Dil Dhakane Do" is a song in ZNMD.

Is she quoting her dad's lines? I know he wrote the lyrics to everything in ZNMD, but I haven't seen Rock On, to know whether the line is in the one song credited to him.
To the extent that the story's mostly about the brother-sister dynamic, I'm guessing Anushka's going to be playing the same kind of "interfering shrew" stereotype that Kalki got handed in ZNMD, with maybe slightly more redeeming traits.

The rumour mill is churning out the usual speculation. ApunKaChoice say that Ranveer and Priyanka may not be siblings after all: Ranveer Singh not playing Priyanka Chopra’s brother in Zoya Akhtar’s next?Director Zoya Akhtar is extremely guarded about her next film Dil Dhadakne Do. The movie is expected to go on the floors this summer, but the casting is not yet confirmed. Now, it’s even heard that Priyanka Chopra and Ranveer Singh, who are supposed to play siblings in the movie, will not be brother and sister on big screen. As per latest reports, Ranveer Singh is not playing Pee Cee's brother in Dil Dhadakne Do. Throwing some light on the actor’s character in the movie, a source claims that he plays a rich businessman and will be in a never-seen-before avatar. We also hear that Ranveer Singh will be very prim and proper like a suave man in the movie, quite unlike the carefree characters he has played so far. Zoya Akhtar reportedly has even made the actor sign a contract for Dil Dhadakne Do, stating that he will not shoot for any other film, not even ads, until the movie wraps up. Producer Ritesh Sidhwani tells a tabloid, “We want to keep Ranveer's look under wraps. Fortunately for us he has agreed to work exclusively on Dil Dhadakne Do for four-and-half months.” Interestingly, the movie also has Ranveer’s ex-flame Anushka Sharma in a pivotal role. Zoya will be shooing the film extensively across Europe in countries like Turkey, Spain, Italy, France and Tunisia. The story of the movie is said to be set on a cruise where most of the characters will meet.

Is Anushka playing Second Female Lead, behind Priyanka, here? She just played Second to Katrina in Jab Tak Hai Jaan. I don't recall Anushka having any Lead Roles lately. Is there a pattern here?

Dancelover While she plays a supporting role in this film, Anushka's other upcoming releases ( Bombay Velvet, NH10, PK) have her as the lead. (That said, she does seem to be more willing to share screen space with other actresses than some of her contemporaries.)

They just started shooting. Farhan tweeted this: "Combination of excitement & nerves as I prepare to leave tmrw for the shoot of #DilDhadakneDo… can't wait to get started!"
Seems like they're filming in Spain again - the press had pics of Priyanka Chopra and Ranveer Singh in Barcelona. Should be interesting.

Barcelona's a cool city that I felt like we didn't get to see enough of in ZNMD, so I approve of this development. To the extent that it is any of my business, anyway.

Wikipedia calls this film "Dil Dhadakne Do." Someone else called it "Dil Dhakadne Do."
DDD seems to be the second time Anil Kapoor and Shefali Shah have played spouses, after Black & White in 2008.
