Saif Ali Khan and Kiara Advani are reported to be cast together in Kanika Dhillon’s directorial debut, a supernatural thriller produced by Excel Entertainment. Both outlets say the film is not yet titled, and the project is in development with the script being finalised.
The reports describe the story as an “intense thriller” with a supernatural element, though details of the plot and characters are not disclosed. One source notes that the filmmaking team is reportedly developing the narrative around the two lead actors during the scripting stage. Both outlets also say shooting is expected to begin later this year once the script is locked.
The coverage also frames the project as a transition for Dhillon, who is known for writing films such as Haseen Dillruba and Manmarziyaan and has produced under her banner Kathha Pictures. While neither outlet provides additional creative specifics, both tie the announcement to Excel Entertainment’s backing and Dhillon’s shift from writing/producing to directing, with additional information expected after the screenplay is final.
