Vir Das, Imran’s co-star from the highly acclaimed 2011 black comedy, Delhi Belly, is directing this film, marking his foray into direction following 17 years of acting career. He has apparently also directed and show-run a yet-to-release web series, but this movie will mark his first feature film directorial. Mona Singh, renowned for her roles in 3 Idiots and Laal Singh Chaddha, plays a pivotal role in the movie, while the female lead’s casting remains under wraps. Aamir Khan is also said to be making a cameo appearance, but it’s not yet confirmed.
Happy Patel has emerged as Imran’s comeback project after his initially planned web series with Abbas Tyrewala fell through. He was supposed to play an intelligence officer in Disney+Hotstar’s espionage thriller series set in the cloak-and-dagger world of South Asian counter-intelligence. Siddharth Roy Kapur was producing, but the project was put on the backburner as a result of the merger between Reliance Industries and The Walt Disney Company. Imran recently expressed relief at the cancellation, sharing that he doesn’t want to play a character who solves problems with a gun. Happy Patelappears to be an ideal comeback as it offers audiences a joyful and enjoyable experience, much like his previous movies he is popularly known for even today.
The Imran Khan movie is the latest addition to Aamir Khan Productions’ exciting upcoming lineup. Currently basking in the glory of Laapataa Ladies, which recently dropped on Netflix following its successful theatrical run, the company has four more movies slated ahead: RS Prasanna’s Sitare Zameen Par, starring Aamir and Genelia Deshmukh; Rajkumar Santoshi’s Lahore 1947, starring Sunny Deol; Sunil Pandey’s Pritam Pyare, starring Sanjay Mishra and Neeraj Sood; and Junaid Khan’s One Day remake with Sai Pallavi.

Wohoooo!!! Super excited
I’m excited for this too. I think a smaller movie where the focus will be on the writing and quality is a much better option. Specially since it has a shot at becoming a critical win and a sleeper hit.
Lots of luck to Imran
