Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal in March this year officially announced that they together are launching their own production arm, Pushing Buttons Studios. Their first film that the duo announced, set to be directed by Shuchi Talati has been titled 'Girls will Be Girls'.
The actor-producer this past weekend shot a teaser in Dehradun with their producing partners Sanjay Gulati of Crawling Angel Films and Claire Chassagne of French banner Dolce Vita Film. They're tight-lipped about the film and the teaser is to be submitted at a script lab in August and is reportedly up for a grant.
Fazal shared a picture from the shooting location on Instagram. He wrote alongside, "Producer shoes on!! book check , script check, location check , creatives check, partner check.. @therichachadha 😉 I almost dont want to not reveal this place to the world but then you cant stop aesthetics from rising and shining - thank you Daleep bhai @daleepakoi for making this all happen at your beautiful heritage home @theshumshere ..
