Bollywood banner Dharma Productions on Thursday announced that the upcoming film ‘Selfiee’, starring Akshay Kumar and Emraan Hashmi, has started filming.

The drama-comedy, being directed by Raj Mehta of ‘Good Newwz’ fame, is a remake of 2019 Malayalam-language comedy-drama Driving Licence.

The Karan Johar-led Dharma Productions shared the news of filming start on the project on the banner’s social media handles.

“Day 1 of #Selfiee & we need all your love, blessings, and good vibes! the production house tweeted

Meanwhile, Hashmi took to Instagram and posted, “#Selfiee time”. The 42-year-old actor also shared a selfie along with the post.

The original Malayalam movie was directed by Lal Jr from a script by Sachy. It revolved around a superstar (Prithviraj Sukumaran) famous for his driving skills but losing his license. However, the issue spins out of control after he locks horns with a motor inspector (Suraj Venjaramoodu), who happens to be a fan of the actor.

‘Selfiee’ is produced by Johar’s Dharma Productions and Kumar’s Cape of Good Films along with Sukumaran’s Prithviraj Productions and Magic Frames.
