We are now looking to start shooting early next year.”

Priyadarshan insists that the basic script is locked, however, he will continue writing it till it goes on floors. “I will be working on multiple drafts – There will be a first draft, second draft, third draft for the script,” he added.

The buzz is that the film will be produced by Akshay Kumar but Priyadarshan refused to comment on the same, he said, “That’s something you need to ask Akshay, as I am just working on the script. It’s him who always looks into the other factors.”
