Umesh Shukla

Director Umesh Shukla, who gave us the hilarious and socially-relevant OMG -Oh My God! is busy with his next two projects. There’s Abhishek Bachchan-starrer All Is Well — the shooting of which is scheduled for this month, and Amitabh Bachchan-Paresh Rawal-starrer 102 Not Out. While All Is Well is over 60 per cent complete, 102 Not Out, which was supposed to start this year, has now been pushed to 2015.
“I have to finalise the dates with Amitabh Bachchan. The film was supposed to start this year but my script was not complete. Now that the third draft is ready, we can finalise dates for the shooting. Both the actors are very charged about the film. We are getting make-up artistes from abroad for Mr. Bachchan to make him look 102 years old!” said Shukla, who, in the meanwhile, is in the process of wrapping up All Is Well. “We start shooting this month . A few portions will be filmed in Mumbai, others will be shot in Himachal Pradesh. The film should wrap up by January 15,” he added.
