Abhishek Varman, who last directed ‘2 States’, is all set to explore yet another genre with his forthcoming release, tentatively titled Shiddat. And this time around, he will be roping in Gen Y star Varun Dhawan.
Though not much has been revealed about the film or its casting, we hear that it is a period drama. It is being said that the film in question will be set amidst the backdrop of India-Pakistan partition and will also have two male leads. Shiddat is said to be co-produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions.
As of now, Varun Dhawan is looking forward to promoting the action packed ‘Dishoom’ along with co-stars John Abraham and Jacqueline Fernandez. Rumours also have it that Varun has signed the Dhyan Chand biopic.
