Collaboration
He also collaborated with Mehra for 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag'
Interestingly, Toofan will mark Farhan's second collaboration with Mehra.
The actor-director duo had last worked together in another sports drama, the 2013 release Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, a biopic based on Indian athlete Milkha Singh.
Bhaag Milkha Bhaag turned out to be a huge critical and commercial hit.
Given Farhan's stellar performance in that film, fans have their hopes high for Toofan as well.
Coming together
"We have always been bouncing ideas off each other"
Talking about this collaboration, the filmmaker expressed his excitement about working with him again.
"I can't talk much because we haven't even started shooting. We're planning to go on the floors by the end of the year. Both Farhan and I are getting to work with each other after six years. We have always been bouncing ideas off each other," Mehra once stated.
