8th May 2023, Mumbai: In the next Malayalam film directed by Rosshan Andrews, Shahid Kapoor and Pooja Hegde are anticipated to appear together on screen. According to a rumour in Pinkvilla, Siddharth Roy Kapur would support Rosshan Andrews’ film, and the two have already cast Pooja Hegde as the female lead in their upcoming project, Koi Shaq. Even a month before Bloody Daddy hits theatres, Shahid has already signed up for another film that is described as a “action thriller”. According to rumours, the title of the film, Koi Shaq, fits the concept quite nicely. According to a source cited in the paper, the producers wanted “a fresh casting,” and as a result, Shahid and Pooja were discovered.
“Rosshan and Siddharth wanted to move forward with a fresh casting and they have zeroed in on Pooja Hegde to play the female lead alongside Shahid Kapoor,” the insider was cited as saying by Pinkvilla. The team is eager to take it on the floors since it is an action thriller. The source went on to say that the film was originally scheduled to begin production on May 8 but has since been delayed. The source continued, “It was untitled for a very long time, but the team has now come up with a title that is quite pertinent. Koi Shaq has the atmosphere of an exciting murder mystery. The movie was supposed to start filming on May 8, but there hasn’t been a shooting schedule set up yet because there seems to have been a delay. Zed Studios will produce the movie in addition to Siddharth Roy Kapur.”
But that’s not all. Fans will get to see Shahid showcasing his comic timing in Anees Bazmee’s film after the action thrillers Bloody Daddy and Koi Shaq. The movie will have the support of director Dil Raju. The insider said that although Shahid hasn’t given specific dates for the film, there is a very good probability that the actor would begin work on it before Koi Shaq. The source stated, “He is still deciding on the dates, but there is a good chance that Shahid would begin shooting the Anees Bazmee movie before the thriller. In the upcoming 15 days, his shot journal will be more evident.
For Shahid, 2023 is turning out to be a fantastic year. The actor has been quite busy, having interesting work commitments back-to-back. The actor, who has been acting, has already completed two films in the post-pandemic era: Jersey and Farzi, and he is currently anticipating the release of Bloody Daddy, which will be directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. In addition to Shahid, the film also stars Sanjay Kapoor and Diana Penty, and it is scheduled to make its debut at Jio Cinema in June. Shahid, on the other hand, will soon appear with Kriti Sanon in a love drama. Dimple Kapadia is also a part of the film, which is scheduled for release in October of this year. The fans are in for a treat this year with two further ventures, namely Koi Shaq and the comedy film.
