Anees Bazmee is certainly one among the top filmmakers of the year for having delivered a major hit in the form of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. Following the succes, the veteran writer-director has now joined forces with Zee Studios and Echelon Productions for a mainstream action-comedy which is to soon go on floors.

While the production house is yet to divulge other key details related to the project, the film is slated to be out in 2023.

"After the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, I want to give our audiences an even bigger dose of entertainment, and this time it will be a larger-than-life action comedy. I am very happy to team up with Zee Studios, Vishal Rana, and Rohini Vakil for this project. This film will be something that the Indian audiences have never seen before, and I am very excited about it," said Anees Bazmee in the press statement.

Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, Nagaraj Manjule's Sairat, Secret Superstar, Mulk, Uri: The Surgical Strike, Gully Boy, and several other. Zee Studios has also successfully entered the south Indian market with films like Vakeel Saab (Telugu film starring Pawan Kalyan), Thalaivii (Kangana Ranaut), and Valimai (Ajith Kumar).
