Bollywood's top directors -- Karan Johar, Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar and Dibakar Banerjee -- are making an anthology film for Netflix on themes of love and lust. 
 
The film was earlier titled Bombay Talkies 2 but was later changed to Lust Stories. The movie brings together the filmmakers after Bombay Talkies&nbsp;in 2013. 
 
Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP, which made Love Per Square Foot&nbsp;for Netflix, has produced Lust Stories&nbsp;with Ashi Dua of Flying Unicorn Entertainment. Dua was also one of the co-producers of Bombay Talkies.&nbsp; 
The film features Radhika Apte, Manisha Koirala, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar and Kiara Advani. 
 
It will be available to over 117 million members of the streaming service in 190 countries simultaneously in June this year. 
 
"With universal themes, world-class talent and unique formats, Indian stories are loved among Netflix members around the world. It's very exciting to continue our collaboration with RSVP and bring 'Lust Stories' to the global entertainment-loving audience," said Swati Shetty, Director of Content Acquisition, Netflix. 
 
Screwvala said the film is a collection of four short stories that deals with "real life relationships in modern India". 
 
Johar said he was excited to narrate a story on the theme of lust on a new-age and dynamic platform. 
 
"Lust Stories&nbsp;breaks ground and even tears the envelope at times! This one is worth the price of a subscription!" he added. 
 
Akhtar, whose directorial credits include Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara&nbsp;and Dil Dhadakne Do, said, "Viewers today demand freedom in how they consume entertainment and since our stories have evolved to reflect modern sensibilities, so should the medium. It's very exciting to make my Netflix debut with this film, and I can't wait to see how a world audience receives it." 
 
"I feel incredibly lucky to be in this film, in this company, and the fact that this will be seen by people who want to see films with subjects and treatment like this. I already feel a lot smarter, cooler, and maybe more honest. Something traditional theatricals do not make you feel anymore," Banerjee said. 
 
Kashyap, who is already working with Netflix on original series Sacred Games, said, "... As audiences move towards enjoying entertainment online, I'm delighted to play a part in welcoming this shift in India."

The film was earlier titled Bombay Talkies 2 but was later changed to Lust Stories.

Looks like 2018 is going to be a busy year for Vicky Kaushal. The actor has four releases next year making him one of the busiest actors of 2017-18. Vicky will be seen in a pivotal role in one of the most awaited films of 2018- Raju Hirani&rsquo;s Sanjay Dutt biopic and then Kaushal will be seen playing the lead in films like Meghna Gulzar&rsquo;s Raazi, Ronnie Screwvala&rsquo;s Love Per Square Feet and a film on URI surgical attack.&nbsp;

The latest news is that the actor has been roped in for the sequel of 2013&rsquo;s critically acclaimed film Bombay Talkies. Karan Johar will be directing one of the quartets of the series for which Vicky will be playing the lead. This would be the first time that Karan and Vicky will be trying their hands in the comedy genre. Vicky comes from a background of indie cinema whereas Karan has been associated completely with mainstream commercial cinema; seeing them both collaborating for the first time on a subject they never attempted before would prove as a litmus test.&nbsp;

Sources close to the filmmaker says, &quot;The series will be an out and out comedy where Karan will unleash his creativity to the brim. Karan approached Vicky after seeing the rushes of Raazi and after giving screen test Vicky was selected to play the main lead. The final paperwork is yet to take place.&quot;&nbsp;

Karan&rsquo;s movie will be produced by Ashi Dua and presented by Screwvala. For Vicky, it would be an opportunity to prove his mettle and break the stereotype that he has gotten attached to at an early stage of his career.
