"'102 Not Out' is definitely happening. The script is ready. I will start working on it after 'All is Well' releases," Shukla told PTI.

The "Oh My God" director said he will start working on the film, an adaptation of a Gujrati play of the same name, after he secures the dates of the cast.

"We will figure out the dates of Amitabh Bachchan and Paresh Rawal, once that is done, we shall hopefully begin shooting by the end of this year."

"102 Not Out" chronicles the story of a 102 year old man (Bachchan) who is trying to break the oldest person record in the world, and his relationship with his 75-year-old son (Rawal).

Shukla is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film "All Is Well", starring Abhishek Bachchan, Rishi Kapoor and Supriya Pathak.

The film also stars Asin Thottumkal as Abhishek's love interest and will have Sonakshi Sinha in a guest appearance in a song.

"All is Well" is scheduled to hit theatres on August 21.
