Kajol and Revathy’s ‘Salaam Venky’ shoot begins

Kajol is thrilled as she begins shooting her upcoming film 'Salaam Venky'. The film will be helmed by veteran actor-filmmaker Revathy. The project, earlier titled 'The Last Hurrah', was announced in October last year.

Kajol took to Instagram to announce film's first schedule. She also shared a photo with Revathy and the rest of the team. The actress wrote, 'Today we begin the journey of a story that needed to be told, a path that had to be taken and a life that had to be celebrated. We can’t wait to share this unbelievably true story of #SalaamVenky with you.'

The film is inspired by an unbelievably true story and real characters. ‘Salaam Venky’ will have Kajol and Revathy come together to showcase a tale of a praiseworthy mother who battled the most difficult circumstances.

In a statement released when the film was announced, Revathy said that Sujata's journey in 'The Last Hurrah' is extremely close to her heart. It's not only relatable but also inspiring. Kajol was the first person who came to their mind when she, Suuraj and Shraddha discussed the project.

'Salaam Venky' is produced by Suuraj Sinngh, Shraddha Agrawal, and Varsha Kukreja under the banner Blive Productions and Take 23 Studios, Salaam Venky is directed by Revathy.
