After featuring in Baaghi 3 last year Riteish Deshmukh has two more movies lined up – the Nagraj Manjule and Housefull 5.
Pinkvilla has now reported that the Riteish Deshmukh is gearing up to produce a comedy that will feature him in the lead and has also decided on the leading lady.
The source says “This one is a laugh riot which Riteish and his team has been working on for a while. As of now, the plan is to make it a direct to OTT release. Besides Ritesh, Tamannaah Bhatia will also feature in the film. She has liked the script but is yet to sign on the dotted line.”
Ritesh and Tamannaah have earlier worked together in Humshakals and they also made a special appearance in Himmatwala.
Riteish has earlier produced films like Yellow, Balak Palak, Mauli, and Faster Fene. Meanwhile, Tamannaah will next be seen in the Telugu remake of Kangana Ranaut’s Queen and also has Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer Bole Chudiyan, Seetimaarr, and Gurthunda Seethakalam in the pipeline.
