Shahid Kapoor to act as Dad

Pankaj Kapoor has finally agreed to direct his first ever film, Mausam, starring son Shahid Kapoor. Produced by Religare Vistaar Entertainment, the film promises to be a romantic entertainer, which will be shot in UK, Italy, India, Spain and Austria.

Shahid will start shooting for it in the last week of January 2010. He has been asking his father to direct the film for ages and would like it to be his launch vehicle, but Pankaj likes working at his own speed. The film’s screenplay has been written by Pankaj Kapoor himself and it spreads out over 10 years.


A newcomer will be roped in for the female lead in Mausam. The producers of the film want a girl with a fresh face and a novel look.
