Mona Singh gears up for the spy comedy Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos, co-directed by and starring Vir Das, with Aamir Khan Films backing the project. The film features a quirky twist as Mona plays Aamir Khan’s daughter
Aamir Khan and Mona Singh
Bollywood actress Mona Singh is on a remarkable run, delivering one impressive performance after another, and her next project adds yet another exciting chapter to her evolving filmography. After earning widespread praise for her powerful roles in recent years, especially The Ba***ds of Bollywood, the actress now steps into a quirky, comedic world with Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos, the upcoming spy comedy backed by Aamir Khan Films.
Aamir Khan to play Mona Singh's father
The film marks the directorial debut of actor-comedian Vir Das, who also plays the lead alongside Mona. Known for her versatility and ability to effortlessly shift between drama and comedy, Mona is set to bring a fresh charm to this eccentric espionage entertainer.
What makes the film even more fascinating is her on-screen reunion with Aamir Khan—this time with a twist fans didn’t see coming. After playing his mother in Laal Singh Chaddha, Mona will now be seen as his daughter in Happy Patel. Aamir himself plays a key character in the film.
Sharing the fun details at an event, Aamir said, “Happy Patel is coming in January. It is a comedy film. It features Vir Das and Mona Singh. Mona Singh is the one who played the role of my mother in LSC (Laal Singh Chadha), now I am playing her father in Happy Patel.”
With Mona at the center of the narrative, Vir Das bringing his signature humour behind and in front of the camera, and Aamir Khan joining in on the madness, Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos promises to be an entertaining ride.
As Mona Singh continues to spread her magic and choose projects that break patterns and offer her new shades to explore, this January release looks set to add another standout performance to her stellar streak.
Imran Khan's comeback
The announcement video of Happy Patel also featured a glimpse of actor Imran Khan who has been teasing his comeback for a long time now. He will reunite with Danish Aslam, the director of Break Ke Baad, which was released 15 years ago, later this month. In a recent interview, Imran discussed his comeback project and his co-star, Bhumi Pednekar.
During a chat with the Hindustan Times, Iman Khan described his future project as "a natural progression."' He said, “The movie is just like what the team of Break Ke Baad would be doing 15 years later in life. It’s a natural progression. Danish and I now have a collective life experience. He’s been married, I’ve been through a divorce. It’s just the film we should make 15 years later. This is very much a personal project that came from the creative urge of wanting to tell a story and working with dear friends. The shoot is complete, and it’s in post-production. We are looking at releasing it once the streaming platform decides on the date.”
