Here goes the good news for all Chetan Bhagat- fans.

Hopefully the movie will be released in Januray,2008.

The story is basically based on the call center employees and their frustrated lives. The role of Shyam[ the poor, confused guy] will be played by Sharman Joshi. Sohail Khan will be seen as Vroom, the short tempered, young dude. The film also stars Gul Panag as Priyanka [Shyam's ex lover], Isha Kopikar as Esha and Amrita Arora as Radhika[the only married member of the young crew]. And how can we forget about famous Bakshi, the manager of Connexions? Dalip Tahil will be playing this negative role. The cinematography was done by Sanjay F. Gupta and the music by Salim-Sulaiman and Sajid-Wajid.

Atul Agnihotri first approached to Zayed Khan for the role of tall and handsome Vroom. But unfortunately he could not give dates for 'Hello'. However, Sohail is not a bad choice at all.Lastly,the special attraction will be Katrina Kaif who is supposed to be seen as the pretty co passenger of the story-teller, during his night train ride from Kanpur to Delhi.Atul's brother-in-law Salman Khan also has a special appearance in 'Hello'.

Hopefully the movie is not going to be a 'crap' at all and will satiate all of us with full entertainment.
