Riteish Deshmukh & Nargis Fakhri to work together in ‘Banjo’

Riteish Deshmukh and Nargis Fakhri will be paired opposite each other in National Award winning director Ravi Jadhav’s next ‘Banjo’, with Eros International.

Mumbai Mirror reports that the film is expected to commence at the end of this year or beginning of 2016.

Confirming the news, producer Krishika Lulla told Mumbai Mirror, “I’m happy Riteish and Nargis have come on board. I wanted actors who would fall in love with the subject and give it their all. It’s an apt part for Nargis who plays a girl from abroad who is visiting India. We will be organising some workshops closer to the time they begin shooting,” When prodded on whether the two would be romancing each other in the film, she quipped evasively, “Whether they fall in love or not is for the audience to find out when they watch the film.”

This will be the stars second film together after Sajid Nadiadwala’s ‘Housefull 3’.
