After enthralling us with movies like 'Special 26', 'Baby' and 'Naam Shabana,' Neeraj Pandey is all geared for his upcoming directorial venture.
Like 'Special 26' which was inspired by the 1987 Opera House heist where a group posing as CBI officers executed an income tax raid on Mumbai jewelry and took off with "samples" of jewelry and cash, this movie will also be based on true events.
The movie will feature Sidharth Malhotra and Manoj Bajpayee together, for the first time.
The film revolves around the relationship between a mentor and a protege.
These incredible characters exist and the incident actually happened. Neeraj was looking to explore a different kind of a story after 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story'.
He has put together a great ensemble cast, along with Sidharth and Manoj.
After 'MS Dhoni', 'A Wednesday' and 'Special 26,' director Neeraj Pandey's upcoming project will be a 2018 Republic Day release.
The story is set in Delhi, London, and Kashmir. Neeraj who likes to shoot in real locations, will be shooting parts of it in the Valley.
The movie will go on the floors in May.
