Veteran actor Paresh Rawal will be essaying the late Soumitra Chatterjee’s character. There is speculation that Naseeruddin Shah will also be playing a major role in the film. The child artiste for the central character will also be cast from Mumbai. The film will be produced by Mukherjee and Roy’s Windows Production House.
