The title of Shoojit Sircar's next with Abhishek Bachchan was unveiled on Wednesday. The slice-of-life film is titled I Want To Talk.

The makers took to social media to share a teaser for the film that shows a bobblehead made after Abhishek's character in the film. A voiceover ensues: "I don't just love to talk, I live to talk. That's the only difference between the living and the dead, the dead can't talk."

The film's production house Rising Sun Films captioned the post, "We all know that one person who l̶o̶v̶e̶s̶ lives to talk. Here’s the story of a man who always looks at the brighter side of life, no matter what life throws at him."

I Want To Talk marks the first collaboration between Abhishek and Shoojit. The latter has frequently teamed up with Abhishek's father, superstar Amitabh Bachchan, on films like Piku and Gulabo Sitabo. Shoojit's last film was the patriotic-thriller Sardar Udham

Earlier, talking about I Want To Talk with PTI, the director had said, "It's a very simple observation of life with a little smile. When I watch the film, its post-production, it brings a smile (to my face). And, I can guarantee that it is one of the finest of Abhishek Bachchan films. We always wanted to work together but we were not getting the right kind of script."

I Want To Talk will release in theatres on November 22.
