Taapsee shared the story after she was spotted attending the special screening of 'Article 15' where she talked about the success of her last film 'Game Over.'

This will be the second collaboration of the duo after 'Mulk', a social-thriller which also featured Prateik Babbar, Rishi Kapoor, and Manoj Pahwa, among others.
