Interestingly, it has the same name as Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda's 1998 film but it is not a remake. Helmed by Ali Abbas Zafar, it will be an out-n-out action entertainer and expected to be mounted on a huge scale. Now, production house Pooja Entertainment is all set to make the announcement on Sunday.

The film is one of the biggest projects in their upcoming slate of projects bringing two generations of action stars together for the very first time. The film, which is already in the pre-production stage, will be helmed by Ali Abbas Zafar and is expected to be one of the large-scale films."

Adding to that, "The action-comedy, likely to have the same name as 1988 movie but it won't be a remake. The high-octane entertainment in the film will be amped up as Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, both, are known for their larger-than-life action scenes. The actors recently came together to do a photoshoot."
