Director Rohit Shetty has finally opened up about his upcoming hardcore action film starring Ranveer Singh and says that he will begin filming for it by the middle of next year. This is the first time the director-actor duo has teamed up for a film, and Rohit says Ranveer is enthusiastic to work with him. In an interview with a leading media agency, Rohit stated, "I will start the film next year in May or June. It is a hardcore action film. It is a space which Ranveer has not explored and he wanted to do this with me. People will love that also. I don't think it will be difficult to present him in this space (action)."

The director also said that his team is currently working on the final draft of the script. Apart from this, Rohit also had plans to remake Anil Kapoor-Jackie Shroff's 1989 superhit film ‘Ram Lakhan’ and Gulzar's 1982 directorial venture ‘Angoor’. "We have kept 'Ram Lakhan' remake on the back burner. I have 'Angoor' remake as well in my kitty. I will make it as and when things materialise," said the director. Besides this Rohit also spoke about producing films, and stated, "There are a lot of things in the pipeline which we will greenlight soon. I will be producing a Marathi film with a new boy. It is at an early stage."
