Pakistani actor Humayun Saeed got fans worried when he and his wife suffered injuries in an accident in Bangkok while scouting for locations for his new movie earlier this month. However, fans now have reason to rejoice because the actor has recovered from his injuries and is back to work on his upcoming movie, Jawani Phir Nahi Aani.

Talking to Dawn over the phone, Humayun confirmed that he is in good health now and is returning to Bangkok in a few days to start work on his movie, which will be produced under the banner of his production house, Six Sigma Plus.

Giving us more details, the Main Hoon Shahid Afridi star revealed the cast and the gist of the plot: "It's a comedy movie so it doesn't have a serious plot. It's a funny twist on how some wives don't give their husbands any space.

We have an ensemble cast which includes Hamza Ali Abbasi, Ahmed Butt, Wasay Chaudhry, Mehwish Hayat, Sarwat Gillani, Sohai Ali Abro, Ayesha Khan and myself. Javed Sheikh and Omar Shareef will also be part of the movie and we are still in talks with Bushra Ansari to bring her on board."

The actor added: "It's going to be a really fun movie with five to six hip songs and will be shot in Bangkok. We just want it to be an entertainer!"

The 43-year-old actor has a lot on his plate and will be next seen in Malik, a biopic based on the life of business tycoon Malik Riaz. He will also star alongside Shaan in Arth 2 and Yalghaar and is also cast in Hamza Ali Abbasi's much anticipated Kambakht.

Jawani Phir Nahi Aani is slated to release in 2015.
