Last month, we had reported how the producers of Shehnaaz Gill’s Punjabi film, Honsla Rakh opposite Diljit Dosanjh, were waiting for the actress to shoot for a promotional song. Shehnaaz, who is grieving the loss of her dear friend, Sidharth Shukla, after his untimely death has not been seen in public, post the actor’s final rites. The hugely popular TV actor and winner of Bigg Boss 13 died of a heart attack on September 2. Shehnaaz has shut herself from the outside world since. This had the makers of her Punjabi film wondering whether she would shoot the song.
They had originally planned to shoot a promotional song on September 15, but postponed the schedule, as Shehnaaz was in no position to report on the set. The actress didn’t even promote the trailer of the film, which was released recently. However, the producers have finally managed to convince Shehnaaz to shoot the song with them. We have learnt that the reality show star will be shooting with the unit on October 7.
Producer Diljit Thind tells us, “I was constantly in touch with Shehnaaz’s team and they regularly updated us about her. She is a thorough professional and I am glad that she has agreed to shoot the promotional song with us. We will be shooting either in the UK or India depending on her visa.”
Giving us an update about Shehnaaz’s mental state, Thind says, “She has been through a very difficult phase and is still grieving the loss. It must have taken a lot of courage for her to agree to fulfill her professional commitment. She is like family and that’s the reason we don’t wish to impose anything on her. I just want her to get back to her normal work schedule for her own sanity.”
