Ali Abbas Zafar, a couple of weeks ago, confirmed working on a superhero film with Katrina Kaif and informed the script of the same is completed. Sending fans into a zone of excitement, the director said that the project will see the actress performing high-octane stunts. Ali told that it will go on floors once lockdown restrictions are eased and travel to different parts of the world is safe and possible. Talking about his superhero universe that is divided into a four-part franchise, Ali, during an interview with a leading daily, revealed that he will carry forward parts of Katrina's film in Mr. India, which will be the second edition in his universe. He further added that two more characters will be joining.
"I am creating a superhero universe, beginning with Katrina’s film. We then move to Mr. India, which will carry forward bits from Katrina’s film, and we are developing two more characters. My third superhero is rooted in Indian mythology and the fourth comes from the Indian army," Ali told.

When Ali, in the month of February, announced that he will be directing Mr. India, a major controversy was born. Addressing the same, the filmmaker told that the film isn't a remake nor reboot but he has just retained the title. Adding that his Mr. India is a tale of a common man fighting a villain in a 'cool and hip way', Ali said he doesn't want to tamper the classic or hurt anyone associated with it.
"My Mr. India is neither a remake nor a reboot of the original film. It’s a completely new film, we are just calling it Mr India. My film is essentially about the common man fighting a mighty villain, but done in a cool, hip way, using science and technology and being relevant to today’s social scenario," Ali added.
