Actor Abhishek Bachchan is eagerly waiting for the "Dostana 2" shooting to start. He says the project might take off in November.

"We have also been waiting for a very long time to make the film. We haven't started shooting yet. We will start shooting later in the year ... November if I am not mistaken," the 37-year-old said here in an interview.

"Dostana 2" is a sequel to the 2008 hit "Dostana". The sequel will see Abhishek and John Abraham reprise their roles, while Katrina Kaif takes over as the female lead in place of Priyanka Chopra.

A Karan Johar production, "Dostana 2" will be directed by Tarun Mansukhani.
