Vivek Oberoi returns to YRF after 12 years.
In
a massive announcement, Vivek Oberoi has just been confirmed to join
the cast of YRF’s ‘Bank Chor’. He returns to Yash Raj Films 12 years
after his super-successful last outing with them, Shaad Ali’s
‘Saathiya’. Vivek has been on a roll with two back to back blockbusters,
‘Krrish 3’ & ‘Grand Masti’ and will be seen in a completely
different role as a CBI Officer who turns the bank-chors lives upside
down. ‘Bank Chor’ is scheduled to go on the floors immediately and is
planned for an early 2015 release.
Speaking
on the same, Ashish Patil, Business & Creative Head, Youth Films,
Brand Partnerships & Talent Management at Yash Raj Films, “The game
just got bigger with Vivek hitting the Bank Chor crime scene. Vivek
brings his A-Game to whatever he does, and with this character that’s
signature rockstar badass Vivek, he’s going to set the screen on fire.
We’re thrilled to welcome him to the party!”
Vivek
Oberoi goes head on against Riteish Deshmukh who leads the gang of
bank-chors. The two actors have been part of the super successful
franchise ‘Grand Masti’. However, in this film, they will share an
entirely different chemistry with Vivek making life miserable for the
bank-chors. Rhea Chakraborty, previously seen in Mere Dad Ki Maruti,
plays the female lead in this mad riot.
‘Bank-Chor’
is a comic-caper, that tells the story of 3 morons trying to rob a bank
who pick the worst day possible when everything that can go wrong, goes
wrong and how they’re inadvertently caught in the crossfire of cops,
industrialists and corrupt netas. And just when you think things can’t
get any worse, in comes a CBI officer who turns their lives into a
living hell! ‘Bank-Chor’ is directed by Bumpy and produced by Ashish
Patil.
