"Alhumdullilah, it's official," Butt shared. "My next film and my first as a lead with these crazy people. Looking forward to making a great film with these great creative film-makers and hope you'll all love it as much as I love the script. Inshallah, see you next year."

According to Express News, Butt talked about the film and its interesting title of Fatman. He shared that the story revolves around an obese man and the ill-attitude of the society towards him. He also said it will deal with how he is not given any importance in the society.

Fatman would present family relations and emotions and the problems faced by an obese man in his life."This film could change the perspective of people towards superheroes," said the actor.

Qureshi and Ali shared that shooting will commence after Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad has been wrapped up. Fatman is slated for release by the end of 2020.
