MUMBAI: Fox Star Studios, Vishal Bhardwaj Pictures, Ajay Devgn Films and Wide Frame Pictures have come together to make a comedy film titled Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola.
Said Fox Star Studios CEO Vijay Singh, "Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola is a very special film for us at Fox Star Studios - it brings together the extremely talented director Vishal Bhardwaj, Bollywood‘s most successful and consistent actor across genres Ajay Devgn and the industry veteran Kumar Mangat of Wide Frame. We believe the nationwide appeal of this hilariously rustic comedy, the coming together of great talent and a title which raises eyebrows will make this an eventful film for audiences in 2012.”
While the film will star Ajay Devgn and Anushka Sharma, Vishal Bhardwaj will play a three-pronged role of producer, director, writer and music composer respectively for the project.
"I have had the idea of this comedy in my head for almost eight years. It‘s a totally new genre and completely different from what I have done in my previous seven films,” says Bhardwaj.
The filmmaker will first do Devgn‘s film and then take up Sajid Nadiadwala film based on Chetan Bhagat‘s novel 5 States.
