The film will be shot in February 2015, and it has been co-written by Ali with Hussain Dalal, who recently came in the limelight through his heartwarming ad film for Nescafe.

Talking about his new endeavour, Ali said in a statement: "It is a very simple story which we are trying to portray in a short film format. We have not decided the title of the film yet but we are going to shoot this early next year. I hope to achieve an intense cinematic experience through this."

The film will be completely shot in Mumbai.

Ali started his Bollywood stint with '3 Idiots', and then went on to feature in films like 'Fukrey' and 'Bobby Jasoos'.
