After Half Girlfriend (2017), hit filmmaker Mohit Suri is set to call the shots for his next directorial venture titled Malang. The film features Anil Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapur, Disha Patani and Kunal Khemu in its ensemble cast.

Though the makers are tight-lipped about the storyline of the film, some reports suggest it is a revenge drama with a romantic twist. When asked about the plot of the movie, director Mohit Suri also chose not to reveal much and just said that the film is “intense, edgy and mad”.


Malang is being co-produced by T-Series Films, Luv Ranjan Films and Northern Lights Entertainment. When asked what led him to bankroll the project, T-Series Films’ Bhushan Kumar said, "Malang has the perfect mix of a well-written story, beautiful songs and strong characters. After Aashiqui 2 (2013), which was a defining film in Mohit, Aditya and even my career as a producer, I am glad to back Mohit's next directorial. We have previously worked with Anil, Kunal and Disha and I am happy they are onboard for Malang. We are really excited to get this one rolling”.

Expected to mount the shooting floor in March, Malang is set to roll into theatres on Valentine’s Day 2020.
