Karan Johar, who is backing the film, on Tuesday shared a photograph of the film's lead pair along with Khaitan.
"The warmest trio at Dharma Movies! Shashank Khaitan is truly the strongest guide, mentor, friend and above all director! Janhvi and Ishaan are truly the heartbeat of 'Dhadak'," Karan captioned the image.

While "Dhadak", which is the Hindi remake of Marathi film "Sairat", will mark Janhvi's foray into Bollywood, Ishaan is making his acting debut with Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi's India-set movie "Beyond The Clouds".
"Dhadak" is an adaptation of Marathi movie "Sairat", which was critically acclaimed for its content and performances by newcomers Rinku Rajguru and Akash Thosar.
