Pradeep Sarkar is known for making women-centric films like ‘Parineeta’, ‘Laga Chunari Mein Daag’ and ‘Mardaani’. However, now it is said that his next directorial won’t be a woman-centric flick and will star Saif Ali Khan.
It is said that the film will be based on the play ‘Shimla Coffee House’. A source said, “‘Shimla Coffee House’ is a story of a small coffee joint somewhere on the foothills of Shimla, managed by a waiter called Satish Kashyap. A writer often visits the joint to write his popular series of short stories. During one such visit, he meets an ardent fan who picks out problematic elements in the story. The disagreement escalates into a fight, dragging in the waiter. It’s a psycho-comic drama and depicts the influence of literature on society and vice versa. “
