For unversed, Kookie Gulati has worked as a creative director on Total Dhamaal, another Ajay Devgn production. As per Mumbai Mirror report, "It is based on real events that took place between 1990 and 2000 and changed India’s financial fabric. Ajay loved the subject and immediately agreed to back it. Ileana has a very strong role in the film but isn’t paired opposite Abhishek. The team is on the lookout for an actress to be paired with him. The film will go on the floors by the year-end."
Currently, pre-production of the yet-untitled film is underway.
