Mumbai: Bollywood's famous filmmaker Imtiaz Ali is set to produce a heartwarming new project titled 'Side Heroes', headlined by actors Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana and Varun Sharma.

The filmmakers made the announcement with a heartwarming teaser for the movie on the eve of Friendship Day.

Imtiaz Ali, Mahaveer Jain, Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and Reeyan Shah are jointly producing the film 'Side Heroes'. The film revolves around three childhood companions who reconnect years later at an emotionally charged reunion. After not talking to each other for a long time, when they meet, a new journey full of laughter and emotions begins in their lives.

Crafted under the deft direction of Sanjay Tripathi, from a script by Siddharth Sen and Pankaj Matta, 'Side Heroes' positions itself as an ode to the often overlooked supporting figures whose emotional heft quietly anchors the stories of others.

MJF Producers Mahaveer Jain and Mrighdeep Singh Lamba shared, “Side Heroes is a script that we instantly related to, the tale of three friends looking back at their lives during a reunion, told through the filter of humour and emotions. It’s just the kind of film that excites all of us. We are looking forward to this journey with the amazingly talented cast and crew”.
