Anil Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor starrer 'Mubarakan' have commenced their first schedule in Chandigarh.

The Triple A of 'Mubarakan', Anil Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor and Anees Bazmee were welcomed by pomp and pride through an unconventional entry on a chariot to the sound of band baaja and some balle balle on dhol beats.

"It's always a pleasure to be in Chandigarh. Amazing welcome, amazing people and an amazing way for them to say Mubarakan to us for starting here. I really can't wait for the madness to begin," Arjun Kapoor smiled and shared.

The first schedule of 'Mubarakan', which is 2017`s First Big Family Comedy Film, will witness a 12 day shoot schedule in Chandigarh.

'Mubarakan' has been creating all the right noise since the announcement of the film. For the very first time, the 'Chacha-Bhatija' jodi, Anil Kapoor and nephew Arjun Kapoor have come together for a film, which has built umpteen excitement among the audience. With the sporting Anil and Arjun joining hands together, their offscreen camaraderie, will be exhibited onscreen.

And despite Anil not having scenes to be shot in this schedule, he flew down to Chandigarh especially to surprise his bhatija.

"It's a very emotional moment for me as this is the first time I am working with Arjun and I wanted to be by his side on the mahurat day. He was quite surprised when I entered his room. He will start shooting from Thursday while I will join them in January for a song sequence in Mumbai and will head to London by the month-end to shoot other portions," Anil shared.

Arjun Kapoor will be playing the role of a Sikh for the first time and has put in immense hard work to get into the skin of the character.

'Mubarakan', produced by Sony Pictures Networks Productions, Murad Khetani`se Cine 1 Studios and Ashwin Varde will be releasing on 28th July 2017.
