Raja Menon, who will be directing the Chef remake, said the reason they want to begin the film after the release of Rangoon is “Saif will also be promoting the film, so his availability might be a concern,” reports Deccan Chronicle.

The director also added that because “there’s a lot of travel involved in the film, so it will be ideal to start the film only post rains.”
