Bhumi Pednekar Onboard As Leading Lady Opposite Imran Khan
Although Bhumi hasn’t signed the official contract yet, she’s already on board and looks forward to trying something lighter after her intense roles in Bhakshak, Afwaah, and Bheed. This movie will be Bhumi’s third collaboration with Netflix India, following Bhakshak and the upcoming The Royals, where she stars with Ishaan Khatter.
Imran, best known for his iconic roles in romantic comedies like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, I Hate Luv Storys, Break Ke Baad, and Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, is returning to the genre that made him famous. Fans are thrilled to see him back, and the film promises to offer a fresh take on romantic comedies.
Danish Aslam, who previously directed Imran in the 2010 hit Break Ke Baad, is once again collaborating with him. The script for the film is written by Suhani Kanwar, and it will be produced by both Imran and Danish, in partnership with Open Air Films, the team behind Netflix hits like Leila and Cobalt Blue.
Filming Of This Project Expected To Begin In March 2025
The script is currently in its final stages, with the draft expected to be completed next month. Pre-production will begin soon after, and the team plans to start shooting in March 2025.
Imran’s fans have been eagerly awaiting his return to the screen. He was initially set to star in an espionage thriller series for Disney+ Hotstar, directed by Abbas Tyrewala, but the project was cancelled due to the merger between Reliance Industries and The Walt Disney Company. Now, this Netflix film marks Imran’s official comeback.
