Superstar Amitabh Bachchan has been signed by director Shoojit Sircar for his next film.

Sircar and Bachchan last worked together in Piku, which was a big hit.

“We have signed Amitabh Bachchan for a film that I would be producing. We share a great relationship and it’s always an honour to work with him. It is going to be a Delhi-based film,” Sircar said.

The film will be produced by Sircar’s production house, Rising Sun Films.

“We have locked a script and it will be helmed by a new director, Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury,” the director said.

The film will begin production in February 2016.
