Shahid Kapoor Explains Ishaan’s Absence on ‘Udta Punjab’ Sets

The premiere episode of Neha Dhupia’s popular talk show ‘No Filter Neha Season 6’ has been released.
Neha took to Instagram to share the promo, captioning it, “May truth bombs be told! It’s finally here… #nofilternehaseason6 and this time on video… watch my good old friend @shahidkapoor at his sassiest best! Only on #nofilterneha.”

During the show, Shahid Kapoor discussed his decision not to have his brother Ishaan Khatter on the sets of his 2016 film ‘Udta Punjab’.
He explained, “I was playing a cocaine addict. I don’t even know what it’s like to have a drink. So I thought, this is the most challenging film I’m doing and I don’t know if I’ll get this character right. And I don’t want the baggage of having my brother because when your younger brother is an AD, you know your one eye is there. Now you’re always thinking, ‘Is everything okay? Have you eaten?'”

Directed by Abhishek Chaubey, ‘Udta Punjab’ also stars Shahid Kapoor, Diljit Dosanjh, and Kareena Kapoor Khan. The film sheds light on drug abuse among the youth in Punjab.

In an earlier statement, Neha shared, “I’m excited to bring back the 6th season of ‘No Filter Neha’ in a new video format with JioTV. Witnessing the podcast’s evolution into a space for genuine and spontaneous discussions has been remarkable. This season, with 8 episodes featuring prominent figures in Indian cinema, is set to be even more thrilling. Brace yourself for candid and unfiltered conversations offering a glimpse into the glamorous realm of the film industry.”

Actors Kriti Sanon, Kartik Aaryan, Ananya Panday, and Rashmika Mandanna are also set to appear on the show.

Additionally, Neha is gearing up for her OTT debut with a quirky comedy series that explores contemporary human relationships from a nuclear family’s perspective.
Expressing her enthusiasm, Neha shared, “I am thrilled to be part of this wonderful project that not only marks my debut in the OTT series space but also offers a fun concept. I can’t wait to explore a whole new range of quirks that the project and script entail.” The show focuses on family-centric humor.

Furthermore, Neha will be seen in an international project titled ‘Blue 52’, directed by Egyptian filmmaker Ali El Arabi.
Reflecting on her international debut, Neha commented, “Embarking on the journey of ‘Blue 52’ has been nothing short of magical. The fusion of diverse cultures in this international venture allowed me to delve deep into a character that is both challenging and emotionally resonant. It’s a transformative experience that I believe will leave a lasting impact, and I’m glad that Ali chose me to essay the lead in what is my international first.”
