The film will be directed by duo Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru. The "Bhar do jholi meri" crooner says he is excited to work with them. "Super excited working with Sapru and Rao... 'Afghan - In Search Of A Home' is very special to me!" he wrote in another tweet. Sami will be seen playing a musician in this movie. This project will be Adnan's first project as an Indian. "Afghan- In Search Of A Home" is the story of a musician refugee from Afghanistan who flees his country of birth under extenuating circumstances to make a very long and arduous walk towards seeking an identity and a home. Sami, Rao and Sapru have been friends for over a decade and were last seen working together in "Lucky...No Time for Love." Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted:
