New Delhi, Jan 31 (UNI) Bollywood actor Vir Das, the popular stand-up comedian, is all set to produce a dark thriller, ironically titled 'Hasmukh', trade sources said here.
The versatile actor will be collaborating with director-producer Nikkhil Advani for the venture, in which he will also essay the role of a serial killer.
The film will showcase a completely different side of Vir, who is known for his comic timings even in films. He was last seen exploring his dark side in the short film 'Raakh'.
"The New Year has begun on a good note for my company 'Weirdass Comedy'. We're venturing into production with two big projects this year. 'Hasmukh' is soon going on the floors, besides 'Happy Patel Khatarnaak Jasoos', the sources quoted Vir as saying on Tuesday.
Talking about the flick, Vir said, 'I am portraying the role of a serial killer in the movie."
'Hasmukh' is expected to be shot all over India.
