According to sources close to the development, after calling it a wrap on director Rajkumar Santoshi’s Lahore: 1947, Sunny Deol will start shooting for the yet-untitled action thriller with Abbas Mustan. “Sunny and Abbas Mustan have been discussing a project for a while now and things have fallen in place. It’s a big-scale action thriller with typical twists and turns that the maverick director duo is known for. It is currently in the pre-production stage and will go on floors in the first quarter of 2024,” revealed a source close to the development, adding further that apart from Sunny, the script warrants the presence of four more seasoned actors. “The casting is underway,” informed the source.
