Mumbai, Sep 13 (IANS) Tusshar Kapoor is all set to play a police officer in his next film 'Maarrich', also starring Naseeruddin Shah. 'Maarrich' is the second venture of the actor as producer, who has given hits such as 'Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai', 'Khakee' and 'Golmaal'.
He said: "This film is very close to my heart for multiple reasons. 'Maarrich' is my second film after 'Laxmii' as a producer and I am also going to be reuniting with Naseeruddin Shah Saab after a very long time."
The film, written and directed by Dhruv Lather, has been described as a whodunit thriller.
Tusshar had ventured into production in 2020 with the Akshay Kumar-starrer 'Laxmii'. He was last seen with Naseeruddin Shah in the biographical drama, 'The Dirty Picture'.
The actor-producer said that his role in 'Maarrich' is different and challenging as well. "The film has challenged me as an actor on many levels as it's very different from the work that I have been associated with earlier. I hope the audiences like this new shade of mine," Tusshar said.
Announcing the release date, he added: "Super excited to bring 'Maarrich' to the audiences in cinemas on December 9."
The 45-day gruelling schedule is filled with action sequences, and will see Salman and Katrina shoot in at least 5 international destinations including Austria and Turkey.
From singers like Udit Narayan, Kumar Sanu, Alka Yagnik, Javed Ali, rapper Mika Singh to Bollywood celebs Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani, actress Soniya Kapoor and many more will be entertaining the audience with their songs and different acts.
Set in the backdrop of the 1971 War, with India backing freedom fighters in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) against Pakistan's oppression, and Pakistan attempting to forcefully bring India to the negotiating table by advancing across our western borders, this film is expected to stir the spirit of patriotism.
Industry legends Lata Mangeshkar, Amitabh Bachchan, Padmini Kolhapure, Anil Agarwal, Sonu Nigam, Kailash Kher, Alka Yagnik, and Shabbir Kumar have lent their voices for the song.
The audience will get to see her in a never-seen-before avatar performing extreme physical training routines alongside the Veerangana Force, India's first female commando unit to tackle rising crime against women in the state.
