Imran Khan`s upcoming projects
Imran Khan will be seen in Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos, releasing on 16 January. Vir Das revealed how he came on board most unexpectedly.
Recalling the moment, Vir said, “One day, I got a text from Imran. He doesn’t even use WhatsApp,” he revealed. “The message said, ‘Hey, I hear the movie is shaping up nicely. Can I come and do something fun in the film?’” The message came as a pleasant surprise, considering Imran’s selective approach to projects and his general distance from the spotlight in recent years.
What followed was a collaborative process driven by instinct and trust.
“After he reached out to me, I went back and incorporated him into the script of Happy Patel,” Vir explained. “I was like, yes, definitely, but then give me some time. I’ll craft a character for you that is entertaining and wild, and we need to do something you’ve never attempted before.”
Meanwhile, Bhumi Pednekkar continues her streak of going daring with her upcoming project, Daldal. The psychological drama series will showcase her as DCP Rita Ferreira, a dedicated cop investigating a brutal killer. Based on Vish Dhamija’s novel Bhendi Bazaar, the series is expected to stream soon on Amazon Prime Video.
