After Serious Men, Bombay Fables Motion Pictures has signed Nawazuddin Siddiqui for another film. The project will be jointly produced by Umesh Shukla and Ashish Wagh of Merry Go Round Studios. 

“All names of living and dead are mostly changed and even the name of the movie will be hidden to protect the innocent, who are we kidding, to protect us! All the makers can reveal is that 'Man' will be played by Nawazuddin,” the creators shared in a cryptic note. 

The as-yet-untitled film is written by Bhavesh Mandalia. It will be directed by journalist and documentarian Sejal Shah. 

“I am always searching for roles which are challenging and quirky, and stories which are exciting and have something to say. With this interesting group of people coming together you can expect the unexpected from us,” Nawazuddin shared. 

Sejal added, “Nawaz is a director’s dream. I am absolutely thrilled and excited that he is part of my movie. He just makes everything look better. And everything you want possible.”
