"Triptii’s dates have been locked. Director Shonali Bose and her team are working quickly to begin shooting for this ambitious project," a source was quoted telling Filmfare. This is as much a confirmation as we can get on the project at the moment.

Parveen Babi's love story and tragic death

Parveen Babi was infamously in a relationship with actor Kabir Bedi and filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt. Her life story would be incomplete without so much as a mention of the two. Thus, it would be interesting to see if and who would play these celebs on-screen.

Of course, her tragic demise is likely to be touched upon. The star who ruled in 1970-80 died at the age of 50 in 2005 under mysterious circumstances.

Triptii was more recently in the news over speculation that she was rejected for Aashiqui 3 for 'not looking too innocent.' Despite receiving critical acclaim for her roles in Laila Majnu, Bulbbul, and Qala, Triptii got noticed and shot to overnight stardom with her role as 'Bhabhi number 2' in Ranbir Kapoor's Animal. Ever since, she appeared in Bad Newz opposite Vicky Kaushal, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video with Rajkummar Rao and Kartik Aaryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Among her many projects, Triptii will be seen in Animal Park (an extension of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal) and Dhadak 2.
