Imran Khan Returns to Bollywood After 10-Year Hiatus
Actor Imran Khan is coming back to Bollywood after not making a movie for about 10 years.
He's working with the same director from his old movie 'Break Ke Baad', Danish Aslam.
This new movie is a romantic comedy, and it's about what the characters from 'Break Ke Baad' would be doing now, as grown-ups.
Imran says this new movie is very personal to him because he's gone through different life things, like a divorce, and he's excited to bring that experience to the story.
The main actress in this new movie is Bhumi Pednekar, not Deepika Padukone like before.
Imran says this was the happiest set he's ever been on!
The movie is finished being filmed and is now being edited.
They will announce a release date soon.
