Meghna Gulzar is known for her unique direction and her latest film Sam Bahadur starring Vicky Kaushal in the lead, has received a humongous response from the audience. Focusing on the life of the Field Marshal, Sam Manekshaw, the film also featured Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh.
Now, if the latest reports are to be believed, the director is set to bring Sidharth Malhotra for her next directorial. According to an entertainment portal's report, a source close to the development said, “Sid and Meghna Gulzar have been discussing a probable collaboration for a while now and they have finally zeroed in on a subject whose narrative will take the nation by shock. It’s set against the backdrop of a horrifying true story and the idea is to portray it with utmost sensitivity for the big screen. The film will go on floors by Mid-2024.”
Further adding, “Meghna had done all her research on this subject through the last few years and got the source material in place for the subject. She was deeply moved by all that happened and Sid resonated with her emotions on reading the script. Both stakeholders are looking forward to teaming up on this special project.”
The film will also be the 5th directorial of Meghna after Talwar (2015), Raazi (2018), Chhapaak (2020), and recent Sam Bahadur (2023).
