"I am writing three films right now and will select one of them and then make it. This is because the biopic of Kishore Kumar will take a lot of time and now it might start next year," Basu said at an inauguration fest.

He further added, "But before that, I have to make another film. It will start soon by April or May. So the preparations for that are going on."
