Talking to news agency IANS about his film, Luv Ranjan had earlier said: "When an actor is excited about their role and their character in the film - things like whether it's a one hero or two hero film is immaterial. The fact is that both the actors found the script amazing."
The filmmaker and the actors have refrained from divulging details about the film. The untitled project is being co-produced by Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg's Luv Films. "Luv Films is looking forward to this project. We do a lot of work with T-Series and will continue to do so. However, as far as Luv's next with Ajay and Ranbir is concerned, it's too early to talk about it. Discussions are on but nothing has been finalised yet," Mr Garg said in a statement to IANS.
Luv Ranjan announced the film after the phenomenal success of Sonu Ki Titu Ki Sweety, which released earlier this year. Despite receiving mixed response from the audience and critics, the film had collected over Rs 110 crore.
Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor's last film Sanju is doing wonders at the box office. The film has earned over Rs 230 crore so far. Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the film is based on the life of actor Sanjay Dutt. Sanju also stars Sonam Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Vicky Kaushal and Paresh Rawal.
Ajay Devgn, who was last seen Raid, is currently working on an untitled project, which also stars Rakul Preet Singh. He is also working on a biopic based on the life of Tanaji Malusare.
