Even as he is winning praise for his Black Cobra act in Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta story, Satish Kaushik is already looking forward to next year when his directorial venture, Kagaz, will be released. The Pankaj Tripathi-starrer is based on the real-life story of Lal Bihari, the Azamgarh-based farmer who was declared dead on paper. While he was well aware of the story's merit, Kaushik's confidence in the material was further bolstered by superstar friend Salman Khan, who came on board as the presenter.
