The teaser for the much-anticipated series Citadel: Honey Bunny, starring Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, was unveiled at a special event in Mumbai today. Samantha recalled filming an intense 12-minute one-take action sequence with Varun, describing their chemistry as unparalleled. “I think we have an 11 or 12-minute-long one-take action sequence,” said Varun. Samantha continued, “It’s the both of us with a cameraman and everyone has to be in absolute sync. So, I’ve never felt that kind of chemistry with anyone and I believe it shows because that action sequence is truly special, if I should say so myself, but just making it was absolutely beautiful.”
Honey Bunny is the Indian series within the Citadel universe, originally headlined by Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden. The series, featuring an impressive cast including Kay Kay Menon, Simran, Soham Majumdar, and Sikandar Kher, will premiere on OTT on November 7.
Samantha expressed her pride, stating, “I never imagined I would do action. But today, being part of Citadel is already such a victory for me.” Her gratitude towards the creators and Amazon for their support was evident as she beamed with pride over the show’s look and feel.
