Director Anees Bazmee, who was working on a few scripts simultaneously, has finalised his next project. He says, “It will be with John Abraham and will go on floors in January 2019.”  

FIRST TIME TOGETHER

A few months ago, After Hrs had reported how it was a toss-up between Ileana D’Cruz and Sonakshi Sinha for the female lead. Now, we have learnt that the Raid heroine has been finalised for the role.  According to a source, “The film primarily revolves around two male characters, but Ileana is the solo heroine in it. Anees wanted someone with good comic timing and was impressed with her act in Mubarakan (2017), so he got her on board.” This is the first time, the curvy actress is paired opposite John. 

ANOTHER HERO

Though there were several reports that Sanjay Dutt and Abhishek Bachchan were being considered for the other male lead, we hear that Anees is casting Anil Kapoor. The veteran actor and John have earlier worked together in the director’s Welcome Back (2015). 

TITLE TATTLE

According to sources, the movie’s name will also be changed. “It was previously called Saade Saati, but later changed to Pagalpanti. Anees isn’t happy with either of the two and has decided to come up with something fresh. But as of now, Saade Saati will mostly be the working title,” informs our source. We contacted Anees to confirm the news, but he remained unavailable till the time of going to press.
