6 Oct 2014

When Ayushmann Khurrana made his debut in Bollywood with Vicky Donor along with John Abraham's production and Shoojit Sircar as the director, the trio decided to make yet another film together titled Hamara Bajaj. Despite the fact that John Abraham, Shoojit Sircar and Ayushmann Khurrana, later got busy with other projects, the film was always on the cards until a title controversy turned it all topsy-turvy.

Apparently the automobile company Bajaj Group decided to take legal action against the makers for using the tagline of their scooter commercials, 'Hamara Bajaj', as a part of their film's title. This ongoing battle led to a delay and the cast and crew moved on to other projects. But now, the makers have finally narrowed down on the title Agra Ka Daabra. Talking about the connection, Ayushmann revealed that his character which was initially named Sanjay Bajaj will now have Daabra as his last name. Also further elaborating on the Agra connection, the actor mentioned that the film will be extensively shot in the city accompanied by a small shooting schedule in Mumbai too.

Agra Ka Daabra revolves around a tourist guide who aspires to be a part of the glamorous Bollywood life.

Agra Ka Daabra is slated to go on floor in December and it is to be directed by Amit Roy who is currently directing Running Shaadi.com for Shoojit Sircar. Ayushmann Khurrana is busy wrapping up Vibhu Puri's Hawaizaada , he will also be seen in Yash Raj Films' Dum Laga Ke Haisha and he will also play a football player in John Abraham's upcoming film 1911 . Shoojit Sircar is currently completing the Amitabh Bachchan, Irrfan Khan, Deepika Padukone starrer Piku .
