Miranda Boys: Harshvardhan Rane, Meezaan wrap majority of sports drama’s shoot

Sanjay Gupta’s next film Miranda Boys, which stars Harshvardhan Rane and Meezaan Jaaferi, is nearing completion.

According to entertainment portal Pinkvilla, there are only a few small elements of the sports drama to finalised before the cast calls it a wrap. Miranda Boys went on the floors in March this year in Goa and was shot there over a period of 25 days.

Pinkvilla states that the last scenes will be shot shortly, since Sanjay has already begun post-production on the film.

While there have been rumors that Miranda Boys is a straight-up sports drama, nothing more is known about the plot. Reportedly, the movie will centre around two brothers who select the opposite sides of the professional football world.

A source close to the movie compared it to “quintessential dramatic films.”

Besides the two main leads, Sahher Bambba also stars in a pivotal role. In February, it was reported that Mouni Roy was attached to the film but she was dropped after the makers decided to cast a fresh face opposite Harshvardhan.

Miranda Boys is Meezaan’s third on screen outing after his 2019 debut Malaal (available on Netflix), followed by Hungama 2 (available on Disney+ Hotstar). Meanwhile, Harshvardhan has been a prominent face in the South Indian industry and made his Hindi debut in 2016 with Sanam Teri Kasam. He also starred in the Taapsee Pannu-led thriller Haseen Dillruba (available on Netflix).

Sanjay is known for films such as Aatish, Kaante, Kaabil, Shootout at Lokhandwala, Shootout at Wadala, Jazbaa and Zinda, to name a few.

In addition to Miranda Boys, the director is working on the third installment of his Shootout franchise, which he plans to start shooting soon. With T-Series boss Bhushan Kumar, he is also creating Visfot, a horror film with Riteish Deshmukh and Fardeen Khan.
