Bollywood couple Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Kemmu are co-producing a biopic of eminent lawyer Ram Jethmalani, and Kunal has revealed that the scripting of the film is in its final stage.
"We have almost finished scripting of the film. After this, we will start casting for the film, which is directed by Hansal Mehta. We haven't approached anyone because we have now come close to the final draft of the script and we are yet to listen to it," said Kunal, at an interaction with the media to promote his upcoming film Malang in Mumbai. "It (casting of actors) will depend on which life period of Ram Jethmalani sir we show in the film. We have been discussing a lot of names but officially we haven't approached anyone," the actor added.
The Jethmalani biopic is co-produced by Soha and Kunal with seasoned producer Ronnie Screwvala.
When asked if the couple has any other subjects in mind to produce films in the future, Kunal said, "We started our production house because I was very much interested in the life of Ram Jethmalani saab, so when Soha and I met him, we wanted to create something on his life -- be it a show or a film. We met so many lawyers, and they were all talking so highly of him, the way we talk of superstar Salman Khan or Amitabh Bachchan."
