A year after 102 Not Out, which revolved around an elderly father-son duo, essayed by Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor respectively, filmmaker Umesh Shukla is gearing up to tickle the funny bone with a situational comedy, the tentatively-titled Namune.

According to our source, Umesh’s next directorial is an ensemble comedy about a group of crazy people who have their own quirks and idiosyncrasies. “Abhimanyu (Dassani), Mrunal (Thakur), Arshad (Warsi) and Paresh (Rawal) have been confirmed as the lead cast,” the source informed, adding that talks are also on to get Richa Chadha and Vijay Raaz on board.

Buzz is, the film will go on the floors next month and will be shot in India and abroad. Mirror reached out to Umesh, but he didn’t respond to our messages.
