EXCLUSIVE: Arjun Kapoor to collaborate with director Aneez Bazmee again?

It seems like Arjun Kapoor is looking forward to working with Anees Bazmee again. The two previously collaborated on the romantic-comedy Mubarakan. It also starred Anil Kapoor, Illeana D’Souza and Athiya Shetty. After a year, the actor-director duo is planning to get back together with another film.

This project, with Arjun in the lead, is likely to be produced by his father and producer Boney Kapoor. PeepingMoon.com has learned that Arjun had a few meeting with Anees to discuss the film. However, they are yet to finalize the script for it. If all goes well, they plan to start shooting by June 2019.

On the other hand, Boney has signed Anees to direct the sequel of his 2005 hit film No Entry which is titled No Entry Mein Entry. The first had Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor in lead roles. The sequel was originally intended to be led by Salman. However, it has been on the back burner because of his unavailability. In an interview, Anees said that he would look for another actor if Salman remains unavailable.

For a long time now, rumours have been rife that Boney plans on casting Arjun in the lead role of No Entry Main Entry. A tabloid reported, “The story is such that it requires a new cast. Though several names are being discussed, Boney is keen that Arjun leads the pack. Given the success of Mubarakan, Boney feels director Anees and Arjun make a strong team.”

Arjun is currently busy with multiple projects. He recently wrapped up Vipul Shah’s romantic comedy Namaste England with Parineeti Chopra and has started working on Raj Kumar Gupta’s espionage thriller India’s Most Wanted. Next, he has Ashutosh Gowariker's period film Panipat and Dibakar Banerjee’s dark comedy Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar.
