The source further added that the cast and story are already set, even if the project is still in its early phases. Andrrews wishes to keep future specifics under wraps for the time being, though. Once filming starts, more details regarding the movie will be released. Moving on, it has been confirmed that Pooja Hegde would also appear in Andrews' future movie, Koi Shaq.
