/> Ranveer Singh is taking more interest in his latest film than the leading man usually does. Since he hasn't signed any other film Ranveer is not only unofficially assisting Vikramaditya Motwane in Lootera, he's also checking out the locations.

Apparently when the shooting for their film together Lootera was shifted from Dalhousie to Bengal at the last minute, and when Ranveer heard the Bengal location was the infamous Puruliya where a mysterious arms and weapons consignment had once been dropped (in 1995), Ranveer insisted on getting there first to make sure the place is "safe for a lady".

This isn't the first time during their schedules together that Ranveer has tested the waters. Earlier when Kashmir was snowed under, Ranveer insisted he go to Dalhousie alone to check out the density of the snow.

Producer Vikas Bahl confirms, "Yes, Ranveer did visit Dalhousie prior to shooting. He insisted on exploring the snow-scape with the unit.

He stayed outdoors in the freezing cold for one whole day and returned convinced that we'd have to postpone our Dalhousie schedule. Sonakshi was warned from proceeding just in time. The snowfall this year in that area is the most intense in 17 years. Our unit needed hot water to open the doors of the cars. "

The unit will have to return to Dalhousie in February when the snowfall would hopefully be less dense.

Says Bahl, "About 40 percent of the Ranveer-Sonakshi romance in Lootera unfolds in the snowfall. So there's no getting away from the snow. The rest will be shot in Puruliya. So that is where we're heading now. "

The unit of Vikramaditya Motwane's Lootera has lost close to a 1 crore rupees by the postponement of their schedule in Dalhousie.

The producers hope to make up for lost time and money after the Puruliya schedule. The one member of the unit who seems most traumatized by the unscheduled change is director Vikramaditya Motwane.

Explains the producer Vikas Bahl, "It's easier for the rest of us to relocate ourselves. But Vikramaditya has to reposition his entire creative process from one state of mind to another, so that we don't waste any more time and the stars' dates. "

Though very tough for the director to postpone the snowy schedule from his mind and head to Purulia, there is nothing much else that the unit can do but head to a less cold clime in Oruliya where shooting was scheduled in February, since Sonakshi's dates are completely booked thereafter.

Ranveer Singh has not signed any other film after Lootera.
