Nikkhil is all set to return with his “Batla House” star John Abraham in the period sports drama “1911“. He revealed that shooting for the forthcoming film will begin at the end of next year.
“‘1911‘ is based on a true story. It is about a football match that took place between the Mohun Bagan Club of India and the East Yorkshire Regiment in the year 1911. It’s one of the most important events that ignited the freedom movement in India,” said Nikkhil, adding: “It’s a script that John Abraham and his team have been working on for the last five years. I believe Shoojit Sircar was going to direct the film but it didn’t work out between him and John, but I loved the idea and the period of the film.”
