Mumbai, Apr 11 (IBNS): Acting legend Amitabh Bachchan and actor  Emraan Hashmi will be coming together onscreen for the first time for a thriller which will be produced by Anand Pandit.

The thriller, which will be directed by Rumi Jaffrey, is all set to release on Feb 21, 2020.

The film will be produced by Anand Pandit Motion Pictures and Saraswati Entertainment Private Limited.

Anand  Pandit  Motion Pictures has been at the forefront of successful cinematic ventures such as Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2, Sarkar 3, Satyamev Jayate, Bazaar and the recent blockbuster Total Dhamaal.

Speaking on his association with this project and Bachchan, Pandit said: "My friendship with Mr Bachchan goes back a long way. I have not met any other actor who matches his skill and commitment. It is an honor to be a part of creating a film with him, and I have always admired Emraan's body of work, so am looking forward to seeing him onscreen with the legend for the first time. Given the subject of the film, I do believe we have a winner in our hands."

Writer-director Rumi Jaffrey adds on returning to direction with such a storyline and casting coup of getting Bachchan and Hashmi together saying, "A film is a collaborative effort and when you have one of the best actors in front of the camera and a veteran producer behind the lens supporting you and leading all creative efforts, then making the film is a fantastic experience!"

Actor Annu Kapoor will also be seen in major role.

The film will go to shooting floors on May 10.
