Directed by Umesh Shukla, 102 Not Out is based on the Gujarati play of the same name and actors will also be seen speaking a few lines in Gujarati. "Amitji and Rishiji are collaborating after 26 years. They are playing Gujarati characters for the first time. Being a Gujarati myself, I had certain references in my mind which we used to create their look," Umesh told Mumbai Mirror.
