Director Sanjay Gupta and actor Anupam Kher are all set to work together after 19 years.
Kher turned out to be an ideal choice for a pivotal role in Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s comeback film Jazbaa, which will go on floors from January 2015.
“It’s a role only Anupam can play. I had worked with him 19 years ago in the second film of my career, Ram Shastra. After that, there was no solid opportunity to direct Anupam. So, I am really looking forward to working with him again,” Gupta said.
Incidentally, it was Woodstock Villa, co-produced by Gupta and Ekta Kapoor, which launched Kher’s son Sikandar in the film industry.
