Starring SRK’s daughter Suhana Khan, Sridevi’s younger daughter–Khushi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachhan’s grandson– Agastya Nanda, the three young stars will make way into the film world with The Archies. While the buzz around the musical’s making has been pretty loud and clear, Zoya Akhtar made it official for one and all. In an early morning Monday post, Zoya’s professional buddy Reema Kagti shared a glimpse of the film’s clapboard as the team starts filming and wrote, “Archie’s shoot starts TigerBaby’s first solo production.” Being Reema Kagti and Zoya Akhtar’s first solo production under their label–Tiger Baby, the musical will be directed by Zoya Akhtar and is expected to release on Netflix.
