Director Shiv Rawail, known for ‘The Railway Men,’ is set to helm a spy universe film featuring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh, produced by Aditya Chopra, according to Variety.

In the yet-to-be-titled film, Alia and Sharvari will portray super agents. Rawail, who previously served as an assistant director on Yash Raj Films’ ‘Dhoom 3,’ starring Aamir Khan, and ‘Fan,’ starring Shah Rukh Khan, made his directorial debut with the studio’s 2023 series ‘The Railway Men,’ as reported by Variety.
