In the year 1983, Manmohan Desai’s smash hit Coolie brought Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor on one platform and now, 28 years later, the stars will once again share screen space in Sudhir Mishra’s directorial endeavor Mehrunnisa.

Well, this is not it! The movie is produced by Nikhil Advani and will also have the actors’ sons Abhishek and Ranbir making cameo appearances. This is one of Sudhir’s most ambitious project till date.

A source disclosed, “It is a script that Sudhir Mishra started writing in 1996. However, it failed to take off that time. Nikhil Advani was Sudhir’s assistant back then. After all these years, Nikhil approached Sudhir and asked him to rework the script. Saurabh Shukla is writing the dialogues for the film.”

Talking about the storyline, the source told, “The film starts off with two old men played by Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor reminiscing about their past. Here is where Abhishek and Ranbir come in. They play their respective fathers’ younger selves.”

“Nikhil wanted to take this movie on the floors this year. But both Ranbir and Abhishek are busy with other projects now. The film will go on floors only next year now,” added the source.

Well, we’ve seen Sr Bachchan and Jr Bachchan share screen space in many movies. But watching Rishi Kapoor along side Ranbir is definitely awaited.
