Rajkummar in Horror-Comedy from Stree Producer & Fukrey Director
Could this be another smash hit from the ‘Stree’ team?
Fresh off the massive critical and commercial success of Stree, star Rajkummar Rao will be seen in another horror comedy for producer Dinesh Vijan. Raj plays a small-time goon whose plans go haywire when he discovers that he might be in store for some supernatural encounters
The as-yet untitled new film will directed by Mrigdeep Singh Lamba of Fukrey and Fukrey Returns fame. It will be set in a small town and also feature Fukrey star Varun Sharma. The film has not cast a female lead yet and is expected to roll in front of cameras next year.
According to the makers, the film is the story of two village idiots who get stuck in a frightful situation but their fool-hardy shenanigans never stop. They promise while the film is a comedy, the horror sequences will be spine-chilling.
Rajkummar and Dinesh have also collaborated on next year’s release Made in China. That film co-stars Mouni Roy and is directed by Mikhil Musale.
