Actor Shahid Kapoor has signed a film with director duo Raj-DK who worked on ‘Go Goa Gone’ last year. The film, which is a dark crime-thriller-drama with a touch of humour, is titled ‘Farzi’. Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui will also feature in the film in a prominent role.

 

The director duo will be making their debut as producers,collaborating with Eros. Sunil Lulla of Eros said, “Tying up with Raj and DK enforces our commitment to make more content driven films. They are a creative and dynamic duo who has gathered a following for their distinctive style of filmmaking.”

 

Apart from directing and co-producing the film, Raj-DK have also written the film with Sita Menon and Suman Kumar.

 

A source informed, “For Shahid, this is an entirely different kind of set up and only adds on to an exciting line up of films that he has ahead of him with the other being ‘Shandaar’. He is clearly experimenting with varied genres and ‘Farzi’ only adds on to the different kind of films he is trying out. Moreover, what makes the cast further exciting is the presence of Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The one who thought of bringing the two actors as diverse as Shahid and Nawazuddin deserves a pat on the back.”

 

‘Farzi’ will go on floors by end of this year and will primarily be shot in India.
