Hansal Mehta confirms film with Saif, plans more with Kareena
What's the story
Hansal Mehta revealed he is working on a film with Saif Ali Khan. The filmmaker discussed the project at the Cinevesture International Film Festival in Chandigarh.
Speaking to Mid-Day, Mehta revealed that he will be directing the film, which is an adaptation of a book.
This collaboration follows his partnership with Khan's better half, Kareena Kapoor Khan, on The Buckingham Murders (2023).
Future projects
Mehta's admiration for Kapoor Khan and future plans
Besides his Khan project, Mehta was also keen to work again with Kapoor Khan.
"We have sent a script to Kareena. Every time I look at a script, I ask, 'Can we do something with Kareena?'" he said.
"You want to work with her over and over again; she is a different beast altogether. Kareena is one of the most prepared persons on set, a thorough professional, and always happy."
New ventures
Mehta's upcoming projects and production house
Apart from his project with Khan, Mehta is also working on an ambitious web series titled Gandhi and an action flick.
He recently confirmed his action movie project but remained tight-lipped about its cast. Earlier, it was reported that he was interested in casting Lakshya in this actioner.
In January, Mehta launched his own production house and has since set several projects into motion, including an outrageous comedy, a slasher film, a zombie film, and an unusual love story.
