Hindi filmmaker Nikkhil Advani’s upcoming production is a thriller starring Manoj Bajpayee and John Abraham, reported Mumbai Mirror. The untitled film will be written and directed by Milap Zaveri (Masti, Housefull).

The thriller marks the second collaboration between Bajpayee and Abraham after Shootout at Wadala (2013), for which Zaveri wrote the dialogue. “It’s a very tight script which revolves around a cop and a murderer,” Advani told the tabloid in an interview. “I can’t reveal who between the two is playing what but they are both very powerful characters and a dark thriller is a genre I haven’t explored before.”

While the rest of the cast has not yet been finalised, the filmmakers will commence shooting in January 2018. “I love the combination of drama and emotion with a correct mix of suspense in the script,” Bajpayee told Mumbai Mirror. “It will be a great collaboration.”
