Mobile Phones Use Restricted On Sets Of Shraddha Kapoor's 'Haseena: The Queen of Mumbai’

In the era of growing cell phone dependency, Shraddha Kapoor has got to refrain from using her mobile phone. The Baaghi actress is all geared up to be seen in the upcoming biographical crime movie ‘Haseena: The Queen of Mumbai’. The Apoorva Lakhia directorial is based on Dawood Ibrahim's sister Haseena Parker and according to recent reports, no actor or actress is permitted to carry their cell phones to the sets.

“Shraddha is currently shooting as the 45-year-old Haseena Parkar on the sets, but before that, they had shot for the ’70s era”, a source from the sets revealed, adding, “A huge set has been constructed at Essel Studios to maintain the authenticity of that time. The whole film is predominantly set in Mumbai of the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s. Old photos of the Nagpada area have been used as reference to build the sets”.

“The makers are so keen to capture the whole look and feel of the time that they had bought 300 fake watches for the junior artistes and Shraddha and her brother Siddhant, so they didn’t look out-of-turn. Also, while shooting the earlier scenes, it was noticed that some phones would stick out from trousers or shirts, spoiling the take. Hence, this decision was taken by the production team”, the source added.

The biopic will chronicle Haseena’s life from the age of 17 to 40. The film will depict how the lady don shot to power and how much she was revered when she was alive.
