Kriti Sanon signs an Aanand L Rai film?

Kriti Sanon, who was most recently seen in Maddock Films’ spoof comedy Arjun Patiala (2019), has a spate of films lined-up for release in 2019 and 2020. And if fresh reports doing the rounds in media are to be believed, the beautiful actress has added yet another exciting project to her repertoire.

According to reports, filmmaker Vinil Mathew, who last helmed the Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra starrer Hasee Toh Phasee in 2014, is back to feature film direction. He recently announced his next directorial venture, Sinbad. Based on the life of merchant navy officer Audumbar Bhoi, whose ship was attacked by Somali pirates, the movie was to be produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur. However, it is taking time in getting started.

While Sinbad may take some more time before taking off, Vinil Mathew has reportedly planned another film. Reportedly, he has even signed Kriti Sanon to headline the project as the female lead. Well-known filmmaker Aanand L Rai will bankroll the film under his banner, Colour Yellow Productions.

“Aanand L Rai is producing the film which has Kriti in it now. Kriti also has Panipat, starring Arjun Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt, and Housefull 4 coming up. Meanwhile, Vinil’s debut film may not have been a success, but there are actors like Aamir Khan and R Madhavan who have worked with him in commercials and swear by his work,” says an industry source.

Besides Panipat and Housefull 4, Kriti Sanon has filmmaker Rahul Dholakia’s next in her kitty. Her name is also being linked to Sajid Nadiadwala’s recently announced film, Bachchan Pandey, starring superstar Akshay Kumar in the title role.
