New Delhi: After giving audiences a glimpse of Bollywood's darker side in Luck By Chance, director Zoya Akhtar has roped in brother Farhan again - this time for a road movie.

"It has got three boys. It is set in Spain. It is a road trip and it is a coming-of-age genre," Zoya said on the sidelines of the Osian's Cinefan Film Festival in New Delhi.

Akhtar said she had written one of the three roles for her brother Farhan, the protagonist in Luck By Chance.

The rest of the cast is yet to be finalised.

"I am just wrapping the script. He (Farhan) is going to be working with me on the dialogues," Zoya said.

In her first film Luck By Chance, she used an insider's perspective to unmask Bollywood's dark underbelly of power politics. The story of two struggling actors trying to earn a foothold in the film industry had cameo appearances by superstars Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Aamir Khan.

Zoya Akhtar hails from a family of filmmakers and writers, and so the setting of her critically acclaimed debut film did not come as a surprise.

But the 35-year-old filmmaker said her next project may not be as complex.

"It is probably simpler on a level than Luck By Chance. It is may be feel good in that sense."
