Raj Kumar Santoshi's fresh romantic comedy featuring Abhay Deol and Sonam Kapoor goes on the floors Feb 1.

When quizzed about the untitled movie, Santoshi told, 'It's in the same creative space as my 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani'. Abhay and Sonam would be captured in a comedy of errors like Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif, though this is a completely different script and has no bearing on 'Ajab Prem...''

But, it is being told that Santoshi had planned the movie as a follow-up to 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani' with Ranbir and Katrina.

As for the once-warring couple, a source told, 'Anil Kapoor and Santoshi go back a long way to Santoshi's 'Lajja'. Anil was supposed to do 'Power' with Santoshi in 2011. That project didn't take off. It was he who suggested to Santoshi that he do a movie with Sonam.'

Abhay came into the project through Santoshi's long association with the Deols. This will be Abhay-Sonam's second movie together post 'Aisha'.

The cinematography would be in the hands of ace-cameraman Ravi K. Chandran.

Santoshi would be producing the movie.
