However, Nariman did not continue with the film business and instead faded to oblivion. It was only 18 years later that his sons, Nadir and Nadeem, revived the banner with Suniel Shetty's Shastra. But now we hear that director Sagar Ballary's next will be produced by the Irani brothers after a 15-year gap. The yet untitled film in question is said to feature Arshad Warsi and Jackky Bhagnani.
