Also starring Sonam Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao and Anil Kapoor in lead roles, the film is being helmed by Shelly Chopra.

Meanwhile, we also hear that Chawla has given her nod to star in a psychological thriller. Though nothing much is known about the project, some sources reveal to an Indian daily that the psychological thriller will be written-directed by South Indian filmmaker Niddhish Puuzhakkal.


Puuzhakkal is popular for his Malayalam film Canvas. He will start shooting for his Bollywood directorial debut in early March.
