"I have finished shooting for 'Mission: Impossible 4' and it is now in post production. I will start shooting for 'Cities'. It's my pleasure to work with Clive Owen, whom I admire a lot," said Anil.
"The film will be shot in New York, London and Mumbai. The filming will begin in October, but my part will be shot in November and December," added the 51-year-old.
Anil will be seen playing a cop in the film about greed and ambition that takes place on a global scale in three colliding story lines. The first story involves a New York-based hedge fund manager (Owen), who has everything he wants - money, sex and power - but he wants more.
The second story is about a London-based young couple who just want to buy their first home, something that seems impossibly out of their reach. And the third story will see a Mumbai cop's (Anil) fight against corruption between property speculators and his colleagues.
Anil rose to international fame with Danny Boyle's multiple Oscar winning film "Slumdog Millionaire" in 2008. He has also worked in US TV series "24".
