The film will be
produced by KriArj entertainment and Kyta Productions.
"Abhishek
has loved the idea and he is charged up for this film as he has never tried his
hands at thriller films. There is no specific prep work required for the
film," a source was quoted as saying by a news agency.
"The shoot
for the film will begin from May this year and hopefully, the film will release
during winter. The film will mostly be shot in two schedules," added the
source.
Apart from this
project, KriArj entertainment have also tied up with John Abraham's production
house JA Entertainment for a six movie deal and Anushka Sharma's Clean Slate
Films.
Abhishek who has
already read the script is pretty kicked about commencing work on the film.
The actor has
mostly been seen in comedies recently with the Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone
starrer Happy New Year, which released in 2014 being his comeback vehicle after
an absence of a few years.
Nishikant on the
other hand has a resume full of action flicks and thrillers including the
2015’s sleeper hit Drishyam starring Ajay Devgn and John Abraham starrer Force.
