Filmmaker Anees Bazmee, known for delivering wide-appeal comedies, has announced his next project titled Ram Aur Shyam. The film goes on floors in February, with pre-production already in progress and several key details being finalised.
Industry sources reveal that a major Bollywood star has joined the cast, though the team has not disclosed the name yet. Given Bazmee’s history with top actors like Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, and Kartik Aaryan, speculation about the lead is already intense.
Bazmee’s new film is expected to follow his signature blend of comedy and commercial entertainment. The choice of the title Ram Aur Shyam immediately recalls the 1967 classic starring Dilip Kumar, remembered for its iconic double role.
While the title sparks nostalgia, there’s no confirmation on whether Bazmee’s version is a remake, a reimagining, or a completely fresh story inspired by the name. Fans are curious to see what direction the filmmaker takes this time.
With hits like No Entry, Welcome, Singh is Kinng, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 behind him, Bazmee continues to command a loyal audience. For now, both fans and industry insiders are waiting to see who steps into the hero’s shoes in this much-anticipated 2025 project.
