🤝 The Collaboration
According to insiders, Sohail and Sanju have had multiple script meetings and are excited about the comedic chemistry. The film is designed to appeal to modern sensibilities, focusing on situational humor rather than slapstick.
💭 On Sher Khan
While Sher Khan has been Sohail’s dream for over a decade, it appears the project is on the back burner for now. Shifting to this Sanjay-Aayush starrer suggests Sohail is looking to re-establish his directorial momentum with something more grounded yet fun.
