While most friendships formed on the controversial reality show, ‘Bigg Boss’, tend not to last, actor-director Puneet Issar seems to have formed lifelong relationships on the last season of the show. Issar has signed co-contestants Praneet Bhat and Pritam Singh for roles in his next directorial, ‘He-Man’.

Speaking about his upcoming film to Mumbai Mirror, Issar said, “You will also see my Bigg Boss mates, Praneet Bhat and Pritam Singh, in pivotal roles.”

The film, originally titled ‘Gama’ was initially to star Salman Khan in the lead role and then Sohail Khan. However, real life wrestler Varinder Singh Guman has now been signed on as the lead.

Shooting for ‘He-Man’ started last month and is expected to wrap-up by February 2016.
