Director Sagar Bellary’s (Left) next will be produced by the Irani brothers who made Don in 1978
Nariman Irani's first venture as producer, under the Nariman Films banner in 1978 was the Amitabh Bachchan starrer Don.
Even though the film turned out to be a blockbuster, Nariman did not pursue his career in production. It was only 18 years later that his sons, Nadir and Nadeem, revived the banner with Suniel Shetty's Shashtra.
Now, after a 15-year hiatus, the Irani brothers are back to produce Sagar Bellary's next, which will feature Arshad Warsi and Jackky Bhagnani. Apparently, the filmmakers are also in talks with Sanjay Dutt.
When contacted, Bellary confirmed, "Yes, we have signed Jackky and Arshad for the film. It will be a comedy, since I have become synonymous with the genre after Bheja Fry and Hum Tum Aur Shabana. We intend to go on floors, in September, this year."
He also dismissed the rumours of Sanjay Dutt coming on-board for his untitled venture.
