Karan Johar proves Takht is not shelved, accidentally reveals release date!

Karan Johar's highly ambitious project Kalank and then launch pad for star kids. Student Of The Year 2 failed to impress the audience and churned abysmally low numbers at the box office.

This lead many to believe that he has shelved his upcoming directorial venture Takht set in the Mughal era for an indefinite period of time especially after reports suggested fire at a Dharma Productions godown destroyed the props and costumes for the films.

However, that is not the case and to silence rumours of the multi-starrer being shelved, the director turned producer posted glimpses of preparation session for the film from his production house on his Instagram profile. The video had a virtual tour of his office and while camera was on the first poster of the film, the actor accidentally let out the tentative release date of the movie. 

The first-look poster of Takht - neatly framed and hanging on one of the walls.  mentions that the movie will be released in December 2020.
