Talking about Ananya's future projects, Ishaan is all set to star in a film alongside Ananya Panday. The yet-untitled film will be produced by Ali Abbas Zafar.

A source revealed in an interview with Mumbai Mirror about the development and said: "Since the Maximum City-centric film is a fresh take on the romantic genre and revolves around young people, Ali was keen to cast actors who are a big draw with youngsters. Both Ishaan and Ananya have impressed with their first films but have not worked together so it's a new jodi as well."

The source further added: "Zafar feels this is the best subject and genre for him to turn producer. Being a writer himself, he has been involved throughout the scripting process."
