Meezaan Jaffrey To Reunite With Hungama 2 Director Priyadarshan For A Thriller Project

Undoubtedly, ‘Hungama 2’ was one of the most anticipated films of this year. And being a part of this big project, Meezaan Jaffrey was quite eager to kickstart his 2021. However, unfortunately, the film opened up to negative reviews and failed to live up to its original. While it surely was not a great start for Meezaan, the actor is now back to work with new energy. Reportedly, Meezaan has been roped in for a thriller helmed by Priyadarshan.

As per the latest reports, Meezaan Jaffrey will be reuniting with the Hungama 2 director for a new project. Currently, Priyadarshan is working on a taut thriller that will feature two male stars. And Meezaan has signed the film and will be cast as one lead. Also, it was planned that the project will go on floors in August. Though there’s no update on the film’s production, Meezaan had signed this film upon wrapping Hungama 2.

The film is said to be a cop thriller with a murder mystery theme. Earlier, there were talks around the town that speculate that actor Akshay Kumar might play the other lead in this thriller. However, a source close to the film informed that Akki is working on another project with Priyadarshan. And it will go into production once the filmmaker wraps up this thriller.

Well, it would be interesting to see who will step in as another lead alongside Meezaan Jaffrey. The makers are currently locking the complete cast and will soon share an official update. Also, an interesting aspect of this new film is Priyadarshan’s entry into the thriller arena after a long time. As of now, more details surrounding the project have not been disclosed.

Coming back to Meezaan Jaffrey, the actor made his debut with the film ‘Malaal’. He had earlier worked as a body double in Padmaavat while also assisting filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
