Every project has its own destiny, and the upcoming film from filmmaker Remo D’Souza is a stark example of this. We came to learn that D’Souza will direct his next film after Street Dancer 3D (2020).

According to what we’ve heard, D’Souza’s initial plan was to make his digital platform debut by directing a dance-based web series. Actor Avneet Kaur was almost chosen for the role, but the search for the male lead left the producers baffled.

The choreographer-director was looking for a relatively new actor to play his male lead, but the project’s funding studio was fixated on having actor Ishaan Khatter on board, which led to an impasse. The project has currently stalled as a result of this.

D’Souza chose to focus on a different project, one that will be directed by Manoj Bajpayee, a National Film Award-winning actor.

The two had been discussing the movie for a very long time. Bajpayee has supported it from the beginning. In the first half of this year, it will probably be installed on the floors. “This one is a special film for Remo. It isn’t a dance film and is based on real life. The film is at a very early stage. The first meeting for pre production will take place this week,” a source shares.
