Firoz Nadiadwala lines up Tiger Shroff for kids‑friendly zombie comedy; Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar approached
Firoz Nadiadwala is developing a kids‑friendly zombie comedy with Tiger Shroff set to lead the cast, with industry sources confirming that Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar have been approached for key roles. The project, directed by Ahmed Khan, is currently in the scripting stage and is being positioned as a large‑scale commercial comedy with a family‑accessible tone.
The film is designed to feature Kapoor and Patekar in parts that echo the irreverent dynamic that made Uday Shetty and Majnu Bhai enduring comic fixtures in Nadiadwala’s ‘Welcome’ franchise. While neither actor has formally signed on, multiple sources indicate that discussions are active, with the makers keen to recreate the pairing’s established comic rhythm within a new narrative framework.
Shroff’s involvement marks a shift into broader comedy for the actor, with the project expected to blend action and slapstick elements within a zombie‑themed setup tailored for younger audiences. The film is being mounted on a sizeable scale, with Nadiadwala exploring a mix of practical effects and stylised humour to keep the tone accessible.
