By Hindustan Times

Director Sagar Ballary and actor Vinay Pathak, who've worked together in Kachha Limboo and the hit Bheja Fry series tend to team up for the fourth time for a comedy film. "I'M almost done with my script. This is a comedy film. We now have approached people...we are within the process
of casting. Once the solid and other things are in place we can announce it within the coming 15-20 days," Sagar told PTI.

"We are engaged on two-three other scripts simultaneously. One is a comedy film and hopefully we might be going ahead with it first. It is going to go on floors this year," he said.

Out of the four films that Sagar has directed, three of them featured Vinay.

"Hopefully yes, he (Vinay) can be a part of the film, provided we get his dates. All I WILL BE ABLE TO is that the actors on this film are good..can't say in the event that they are big or are newcomers. We're looking to get the dates of actors after which we will be able to start shooting," he said refusing talk further in regards to the 'comedy' film.

After making the audiences laugh out loud with Bheja Fry in 2007, Sagar returned after four years to hit the chord with sequel Bheja Fry 2.

As 'Bheja Fry 2' was a moderate success at box office, Sagar isn't in a rush for the third installment.

"Recently Vinay and that i met ...we were discussing in regards to the third part, but we do not wish to rush into things. We wish to take the franchise ahead. The third part needs to be nearly as good and fascinating because the previous two films, only then we can go ahead," Sagar said.

"Its too early to speak about anything on this," he said.

'Bheja Fry' revolved around Bharat Bhushan played by Vinay Pathak, a tax inspector who's seeking to fulfil his long cherished dream of changing into a singer.

While, In Bheja Fry 2, the idiot's (Vinay) journey continues abroad which had a larger star cast and better budget. The film starred Vinay, Kay Kay Menon, Minissha Lamba, Suresh Menon and Amol Gupte.
