Frequent collaborators Rishi Kapoor and Juhi Chawla will reunite for a family comedy produced by Sony Pictures International and MacGuffin Pictures, reported Variety.
The untitled film will be co-written by Hitesh Bhatia and Supratik Sen (Parched, Kai Po Che!), and directed by Bhatia. The film will reunite Kapoor and Chawla 22 years after their last film Daraar (1996). The duo have featured in the films Bol Radha Bol (1992), Rishta To Ho Aisa (1992), Ghar Ki Izzat (1994) and Saajan Ka Ghar (1994).
The comedy will reportedly be set in Delhi. “We continue to ramp up our local production slate with a keen focus on stories that audiences have never seen before,” Vivek Krishnani, the managing director of Sony Pictures Entertainment India, told Variety. Sony Pictures Entertainment has previously produced PadMan, 102 Not Out and Prithviraj’s upcoming Malayalam film 9.
