Sabbir and Tiger are teaming up again for the third time, after "Heropanti" and "Baaghi", for "Munna Michael".
There were reports that Tiger will be seen opposite his rumoured girlfriend Disha, with whom he recently featured in a music video.
"We have not signed any female lead yet. The casting process is still on. We are figuring it out and within the next 10 days things will be clear," Sabbir told PTI.
"Munna Michael" will be a romantic-musical film where the 26-year-old actor will play the titular role of a boy from the street who idolises pop icon Michael Jackson.
The film will go on floors this September and choreographers from Los Angeles and London will fly down to train Tiger for the film.
"For the first schedule, choreographers are coming from Los Angeles and London to train Tiger. I am excited for the film. Tiger will be seen in a new look in the movie."
"Munna Michael" is scheduled to release next year.
