Pooja Bhatt portrayed complicated characters on screen in the 90’s- 2000’s. She has been more known for outspoken nature and stands. While she has been associated with the Bhatts as a producer and director, her last direction being ‘Jism 2,’ (2012) she is all ready to star opposite Pankaj Kapur in the upcoming ‘Abhi Nahin toh Kabhi Nahin.’

According to the Indian Express, the producers were keen on casting Kapur and Bhatt together. The producers, Virendra K. Arora and Arjun N. Kapoor said, “Our company wants to make films that remind the audience of movies like It’s Complicated and Cheaper by the Dozen. We thought of Pankaj Kapur for the film because he is like the Steve Martin of India when it comes to his looks and his body language. In ANTKN, he will be seen romancing Pooja Bhatt. We were in discussions with her for a while as she was our first choice when we wanted to cast someone opposite Pankaj Kapur. And she really liked the story a lot.”

The film will be directed by the creative head of Endemol India, Jyothi Kaur Das, who was also the creative head of Viacom 18 Motion Pictures.

The film is multi-starrer, comprising of Lara Dutta, Kay Kay Menon, Sanjay Kapoor, and Rajeev Khandelwal. Bhatt’s last acting appearance was in 2001, in ‘Everybody Says I’m Fine.’
