Sahil Khan and Sharman Joshi
In the early 2000s, actors Sharman Joshi and Sahil Khan surprised everyone with the hit films 'Style' and 'Xcuse Me'. The comedy films won hearts primarily due to the effortless chemistry between the lead actors. Sharman Joshi and Sahil Khan first joined hands in 2001 with 'Style' and later in '2003' with 'Xcuse Me'. Directed by N Chandra, Xcuse Me was a sequel to Style and chronicled the stories of Chantu and Bantu played by Sharman and Sahil. Now, there is reason for fans of the two films to rejoice as Sharman and Sahil are set to reunite for a film.
As per reports, Sharman Joshi and Sahil Khan's yet-untitled film will go on floors soon and will launch a new heroine. The film will be shot extensively in Abu Dhabi and will have four tracks that promise to top the chartbuster list and break all records.
In a statement, Sharman Joshi said, "With the film all ready to roll, I am absolutely excited. The films that Sahil and I did earlier brought about a lot of appreciation for the chemistry we shared on screen. It was our first commercial hit that was seen by Raju Hirani sir too, who then signed me for 3 Idiots (2009)."
Actor Sahil Khan said, "The writer and the director - Sam Khan - and I have known each other for a long time and am absolutely delighted to work under his direction. Also, this film brings Sharman and me together once again. He's a superb actor and a wonderful person to work with."

Direction and story written by Sam Khan and with screenplay and dialogues by Milap Zaveri, the yet to be titled film is produced by White Lion Motion Picture Production, producer Hitesh Khushalani, and co-produced by Bhuvi Khushalani, Zafar Mehdi and Ishaan Dutta.
