Vivaan Shah was last seen in the damp squib Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laaddoo Deewana (2017). Naseeruddin Shah's son's mystery thriller, Living Hell, recently hit the stands. The actor-turned-author features in the upcoming film Coat, which has Sanjay Mishra as co-star.

Other than this, Akshay Singh's directorial venture will see Shah play an economically disadvantaged character whose ambition is to buy a designer coat someday. The desire motivates him to start a small-scale bamboo handicrafts venture.
