Mumbai, July 6 -- Actors Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha are set to be paired opposite each other on screen for the first time in an untitled situational comedy directed by Shashie Vermaa.

Backed by Scenework Productions and Giriraj Productions, the Delhi-set film also stars acclaimed actor Kumud Mishra and is scheduled to begin filming in the second half of 2026 ahead of its planned theatrical release in April 2027.

The makers describe the film as a character-driven situational comedy set against the colourful and chaotic backdrop of Delhi.
