Late
actor
Rishi
Kapoor's
last
film
titled
Sharmaji
Namkeen
is
scheduled
for
a
2021
theatrical
release.
As
the
shoot
of
the
movie
is
still
pending,
the
makers
endeavour
to
present
the
veteran
actor's
last
film
as
a
tribute
to
his
fans
&
him
on
his
birthday,
the
4th
of
September,
this
year.
To
achieve
this
reality,
Paresh
Rawal
has
agreed
to
complete
the
remainder
of
the
film
in
the
same
role
-
a
sensitive
step
that
is
unprecedented
in
Hindi
cinema.
The
filmmakers
and
Paresh
Rawal
have
taken
this
decision
to
release
the
film,
as
a
mark
of
respect
for
Rishi
Kapoor's
final
performance
and
a
celebration
of
his
inimitable
talent
and
career
for
all
his
fans.
Produced
by
Ritesh
Sidhwani
&
Farhan
Akhtar
in
association
with
MacGuffin
Pictures,
directed
by
debutante
Hitesh
Bhatia,
this
film
is
a
light-hearted
coming-of-age
story
of
a
lovable
60-year-old
man.
The
makers
and
team
of
Sharmaji
Namkeen
are
ready
to
resume
shoot
soon
with
plans
of
a
2021
release.
