Putting behind a tumultuous past that included a culpable homicide case, Kaizad Gustad has returned to filmmaking.

The director has wrapped the shoot of Bombil and Beatrice, a film he's done for Ayesha Shroff. Gustad has his

film ready for a December release.

Producer Ayesha Shroff is also renewing her professional equation with Kaizad Gustad. The two worked together in 2003 for Boom. Their latest project Bombil and Beatrice stars British actress Katie McGuiness and has a background score by A R Rahman.

Talking about the film Ayesha says, "It's a love story with a supernatural twist. We have shot the movie mostly in London and some parts of Mumbai. Katie McGuiness plays the female lead opposite Prashant Narayan and Rahman has done the background score. We have tied up with English production house Medienn who will be co-producing the movie with us."

Special equation
Describing working with Kaizad she says, "I have a sepcial work equation with him. For Bombil and Beatrice, I needed someone with an Indian sensibility who could understand the subject. Kaizad is a brilliant director and I'm very happy with his work. Kaizad has put his past behind and given this project his all."

Even though she isn't new to the role of a producer, Ayesha claims her approach has changed. "A lot of time has passed between my first production and this one. Ways of making movies have changed and so has the market. We have made Bombil and Beatrice keeping in mind the new scenario."
