Dulquer Salmaan will be making his debut in Bollywood with Karwaan this year. The film, which also stars Irrfan Khan and Mithila Palkar, is all set for release on August 11 and expectations are already high.
Apart from this film, it is well known that the Malayalam actor has inked a deal to star in the Hindi movie The Zoya Factor, which is based on a novel of the same name penned by Anuja Chauhan.
Sharing screen space with Dulquer in the film will be Sonam Kapoor and the film is directed by Abhishek Sharma, who has films such as The Shaukeens and Tere Bin Laden to his credit.
On working with Dulquer, Sonam reportedly told Deccan Chronicle, “Dulquer is really cute and such a good actor. I have seen his film OK Kanmani and he was fabulous in that. I really liked him in that movie and I have a history of working with south Indian actors. Dhanush was launched with Raanjhanaa, so I think I work well with them. I haven’t started prepping with Dulquer. It’s starting in August so I am looking forward to working with him. We will start in August or September.”
The shooting for this film, as stated by Sonam Kapoor, will begin in August or September this year and the filmmakers are planning its release in April next year. In the movie, Sonam will play the main character, Zoya Singh Solanki, on whom the story revolves, and Dulquer will be seen playing the cricket team captain, Nikhil Khoda. According to reports, Dulquer, who is busy with a bunch of film assignments, will be undergoing special coaching in cricket prior to the commencement of the shooting to get into the skin of the character he plays.
The film will be bankrolled jointly by Fox Star Studios and Adlabs Films.
