"Do Dooni Chaar" fame director Habib Faisal will helm Yash Raj Films's new project with newcomers in the lead, the Bollywood production banner announced on Saturday.

"YRF's next to launch two newcomers! Habib Faisal will direct the film! Currently, the hunt for these two newcomers - a leading man and a leading lady is on," read a statement from the banner.

Faisal, who is also an accomplished writer, had earlier directed "Ishaqzaade" with Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra. However, his last directorial "Daawat-e-Ishq" in 2014 failed to leave a lasting impact.
