Asin bags Umesh Shukla’s next with Abhishek Bachchan
Asin who's been part of some monstrous hits, is all set to star with Abhishek Bachchan in a comedy film by director Umesh Shukla of OMG Oh My God fame. OMG Oh My God which featured Paresh Rawal as an atheist and Akshay Kumar as Lord Krishna, was a surprise success and in fact one of the biggest hits of last year.

"We did speak to her about it. But it is at an early stage. Nothing is finalised yet," said Shukla to the Times of India.
Abhishek and Asin earlier starred together in Rohit Shetty's Bol Bachchan albeit as siblings. In this film they’ll be romantically paired with each other.
"We are reworking on our script. And then accordingly we will decide things. As of now we have not signed any heroine," Shukla added.
The duo will this time be paired opposite one another
Like OMG Oh My God, the Abhishek-Asin starrer will be socially relevant, but the director refuses to divulge further details on the venture.
The film will be produced T-Series, and Shyam Bajaj, and is set to roll later this year.
Watch out for more on the film as details unfold.
