Parineeti Chopra signs Anurag Basu’s next

Last seen in the Rohit Shetty-directed hit horror comedy Golmaal Again (2017), actress Parineeti Chopra has reportedly signed filmmaker Anurag Kashyap’s next film, which is being said to be a sequel to the latter’s 2007 movie Life In A... Metro.

If reports are to be believed, the actress has been paired opposite extremely talented Rajkummar Rao. Apart from Rao and Parineeti, the movie will also feature a long list of some high-profile actors.


“Parineeti always wanted to work with Anurag as she loves his films and his vision to make something extraordinarily different. She liked the script and instantly gave her nod,” reveals a source, adding that Basu is also looking forward to working with the actress and had followed her work in the past.

Meanwhile, Parineeti is presently filming her next Jabariya Jodi, opposite Sidharth Malhotra. Helmed by Prashant Singh, the film is produced by Ekta Kapoor. She is also promoting her next release Namaste England, co-starring Arjun Kapoor. After Namaste England, she will be seen opposite Akshay Kumar in Dharma Productions’ period drama, Kesari.
