After 'Baarish 2', Sharman has collaborated with Abbas-Mustan for a Netflix Original titled 'Penthouse'

Not so long ago, Sharman was busy promoting his show Baarish 2 along with Asha Negi and Jeetendra on social media. The show premiered on OTT platforms on May 6 and has been garnering a lot of appreciation from the audience. However, recent reports about Sharman Joshi's new collaboration have started making rounds on the internet.

The actor has reportedly signed a web-show with the 90s hit director duo Abbas-Mustan for their upcoming psychological thriller titled Penthouse which will exclusively stream on Netflix. A source revealed the news to an online portal stating directors Abbas-Mustan Burmawala are back to the genre that they are best known for as they have signed Sharman Joshi to play the lead role in their upcoming project with Netflix. The source also revealed that filming of the show was supposed to start in the first week of April this year, but due to the nationwide lockdown, its shoot has been postponed.

Penthouse marks the debut of Abbas-Mustan in the digital platform after their last film which was released in 2017 titled Machine. The film launched Abbas Burmawala's son Mustafa Burmawala in the Hindi Film industry alongside Kiara Advani. However, the romantic-thriller tanked at the box office as it failed to impress the audiences as well as film critics.

On the other hand, Baarish 2 is getting an overwhelming response from critics. Joshi recently took to Instagram to share the reviews by a few eminent portals. The show also marks the digital debut of producer Ekta Kapoor's father and veteran actor Jeetendra.
