The current projects by Anees Bazmee, Shoojit Sircar and Neeraj Pandey
Meanwhile Anees Bazmee is currently working on his own project starring Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan and Raashii Khanna while Shoojit Sircar is working on a mytho horror film featuring Manoj Bajpayee, Rajkummar Rao, Vineet Kumar Singh and Saurabh Shukla.
Neeraj Pandey announced his next Ghooskhor Pandat to be released on Netflix. The film will star Manoj Bajpayee and is directed by Ritesh Shah. The teaser had sparked a controversy with a certain section of the society for its title and Neeraj Pandey was asked to pull down the promotional material to respect a certain community who had found the name Ghookhor Pandat as offensive to communal insensitivity. It had also prompted the makers and Netflix to withdraw the campaign material while it was also suggested the title of the film has to be changed.
