After The Mehta Boys, Boman Irani gears up for steering new style

A 12 months after making his directorial debut with The Mehta Boys (2025), actor Boman Irani is again on the writing desk, penning his subsequent function. Whereas his first directorial providing checked out a fancy father-son relationship, this time, he’s consciously staying away from a relationship drama. “I can’t turn into a style specialist. So, the movie will likely be very completely different,” he stated. At the same time as he refused to reveal particulars concerning the style, he shared that it’ll doubtless roll this 12 months.

When he isn’t busy writing his function, Irani teaches the craft to aspiring writers by his initiative, Spiral Certain. That has made the senior actor face an unlucky actuality — that writing isn’t taken critically as an artwork type. He rued, “Non-actors won’t ever say, ‘I wish to go in entrance of the digicam and act.’ However by some means all people feels they will write, simply because they will let you know an anecdote out of their very own lives. That’s not writing. Screenwriting is a science.”
