To be shot in Abu Dhabi, the as-yet untitled film is directed by Sam Khan from a screenplay by Milap Zaveri
Two decades after starring in comedy film Style, actors Sharman Joshi and Sahil Khan are reuniting for a new entertainer.
To be shot in Abu Dhabi, the feature film is directed by Sam Khan. Filmmaker-writer Milap Zaveri has penned the screenplay and dialogues from a story by Khan.
"With the film all ready to roll, I am absolutely excited. The films that Sahil and I did earlier brought about a lot of appreciation for the chemistry we shared on screen. It was our first commercial hit that was seen by Raju Hirani sir too, who then signed me for 3 Idiots," Sharman said in a statement.
Sahil said he is excited to collaborate with Sharman after so many years.
"The writer and the director - Sam Khan - and I have known each other for a long and am absolutely delighted to work under his direction. Also, this film brings Sharman and me together once again. He's a superb actor and a wonderful person to work with," he said.
The yet-to-be titled film is produced by White Lion Motion Picture Production. Hitesh Khushalani is producing the project, with Bhuvi Khushalani, Zafar Mehdi and Ishaan Dutta serving as co-producers.
Sharman and Sahil first worked together in the 2001 comedy Style. The film was a commercial success and they followed it up with a sequel, titled Xcuse Me, which was released in 2003. Both movies were directed by N Chandra.

Pakistan coach Gary Kirsten stated that “not so great decision making” contributed to his side’s defeat to India in the Group-A T20 World Cup clash here on Sunday. The batting unit came apart in the chase, after being well placed at 72 for two. With 48 runs needed from eight overs, Pakistan found a way to panic and lose. “Maybe not so great decision making,” Kirsten said at the post-match press conference, when asked to explain the loss.
