Recently we had told you that R. Balki's next movie will be starring Akshay Kumar and Sonam Kapoor. Now, if the latest reports are to be believed then this flick also stars Radhika Apte and will be produced by Twinkle Khanna under her new production banner titled 'Mrs Funnybones Movies'.

A Mumbai Mirror report quoted a source saying, "It's Twinkle's concept that will be entirely developed by Balki who is writing the script, screenplay and dialogues. Twinkle will not be involved in the writing process. The film goes on the floors in March next year.''

On the other hand, when Akshay was asked about this, he joked, "She (Twinkle) is the producer and I will work on a salary.''

Twinkle has always been credited as a co-producer on all Hari Om Productions films (founded by Akshay and named after his late father), as is Gauri Khan for Red Chillies Entertainment Pvt Ltd., and Kiran Rao for Aamir Khan Productions. But unlike the other star wives, she was never involved in any aspect of her home productions. However, this time it's entirely her baby.

A source close to the actress-writer further revealed, "There are two kinds of slates being planned for Mrs Funnybones Movies for 2017 - one for mainstream fi lms and the second for off-beat fare. All the films will be presented by Twinkle."

The slice-of-life entertainer will also have a cameo by Balki's favourite, Amitabh Bachchan.
