It's official. Team Agneepath are back in a love story titled Shuddhi which has a tentative release date of Diwali 2014.

"These days it is very important to have the release date in order. Shuddhi is a love story at its heart and with Hrithik's intensity, he will be seen in a completely different role than in Agneepath," said Johar in an interview to NDTV.

"This is a big budget film and with its theme and qualities and the vision that we have, it warrants a celebration period like Diwali for its release," he added.

Directed by Karan Malhotra, the film's leading lady is yet to be finalised. There were murmurs that Katrina Kaif would bag the part but that didn't work out.
