The good news today is, Katrina Kaif and megastar Amitabh Bachchan might collaborate for a father-daughter drama to be directed by Vikas Bahl. The two have reportedly already given a nod to the film and below are all the details you would want to know about the film.
If the reports are to be believed, tentatively titled Deadly, the film is pitched around a funeral and traces the journey of its lead character with humour intact. A source close to the development was quoted in Mumbai Mirror saying, “The film is tentatively titled Deadly as the story is centred around a funeral. Katrina loved the basic premise, which essentially traces the protagonist’s journey of self-discovery with humourous undertones, and gave an instant go-ahead to Vikas.”
The report also claims that the film was supposed to kick off from May 2020 but the Coronavirus outbreak has pushed the schedule. Katrina will be going under multiple reading sessions as her character is multi-layered and needs her to dig her teeth deep.
“She is looking to push the envelope and explore new genres in this phase of her career which, in a way, is a journey of self- discovery too,” said the source.
