Shanaya Kapoor and Tiger Shroff are set to star in a zombie comedy backed by Firoz Nadiadwala and directed by Ahmed Khan. The film will go on floors by end-2025. It marks Tiger’s shift from action to comedy. Meanwhile, he also has Lag Jaa Gale, while Welcome To The Jungle releases in 2026.

Producer Firoz Nadiadwala, who is currently working on the big-budget entertainer ‘Welcome to the Jungle’, has reportedly roped in Tiger Shroff and Shanaya Kapoor for a new zombie comedy. The yet-to-be-titled film will be directed by Ahmed Khan, marking another collaboration with Tiger. The project is expected to be launched by the end of 2026.

According to Variety India, Firoz has decided to produce a zombie comedy that Ahmed Khan will direct. Both Shanaya and Tiger have come on board the project. The story details are being kept secret for now.

Tiger Shroff takes a new turn with Shanaya Kapoor film

This film marks a notable departure for Tiger Shroff, whose career has so far been dominated by action-driven projects like ‘Baaghi’ and ‘Heropanti’. Stepping into a zombie comedy, he will explore humour in a full-fledged role for the first time, making it an interesting watch for fans. He has earlier teamed up with Ahmed Khan on ‘Baaghi 2’, ‘Baaghi 3’, and ‘Heropanti 2’.

Shanaya Kapoor’s career before this film

Shanaya Kapoor debuted in Bollywood with ‘Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan’, starring opposite Vikrant Massey. She then appeared in the survival thriller ‘Tu Yaa Main’ with Adarsh Gourav. However, neither film made an impact at the box office. Kapoor was also set to feature in Mohanlal’s ‘Vrusshabha,’ but she is no longer part of the film.

On the other hand, Shroff has ‘Lag Jaa Gale’ slated for release in 2026. Backed by Dharma Productions, the film will feature him in a romantic role opposite Janhvi Kapoor. It also stars Lakshya in the lead role.
