According to recent reports, Dileep is in talks for director Nisam Basheer's next. The actor, who hasn't been very active lately, has reportedly shown a lot of interest in this project. Though an official announcement is yet to be made, Dileep's fans in social media are already excited. 

Nisam, who made his debut with Asif Ali's Kettyolaanu Ente Malakha, showed his true potential last year with Rorschach. The Mammootty-starrer garnered widespread critical praise while also doing extremely well at the box office.

Dileep is currently shooting for Bandra, which marks his reunion with Ramaleela director Arun Gopy. Scripted by Uday Krishna, the film is billed as a larger-than-life gangster story.

The actor also has Raffi's Voice of Sathyanathan in the post-production stage. Joshiy's On Air Eapen and Parakkum Pappan, a superhero film with Viyaan Vishnu, are his other upcoming projects.
