Priyanka Chopra and Vishal Bhardwaj to reunite

Priyanka Chopra and Vishal Bhardwaj have worked together on two memorable films – Kaminey (2009) and 7 Khoon Maaf. And if you wished to see their third collaboration, your wish is fulfilled.

Amid rumours of writing on a film based on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, Bhardwaj has confirmed that he is teaming up with the talented actress once again. The film is expected to go on the floors next year.


“Priyanka also wants to work with me. And we are working with each other. Hopefully, we will start the film next year,” the filmmaker said at the song launch of his upcoming directorial venture Pataakha.

Vishal Bhardwaj was also set to direct Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone in a film, but the project is currently on hold due to Khan’s health. When asked about the film’s status, the director said, “I don’t know about the film’s status. I can tell you my heart’s status and it is that we all are praying for him. Obviously, I’m missing him as a friend but also as an audience. I want to see him on screen again, whether it’s my film or someone else’s.”

Starring Sanya Malhotra, Radhika Madan and Sunil Grover, Pataakha releases on 28th September.
