Acclaimed Indian director Zoya Akhtar has started shooting for her upcoming Netflix live-action musical film, "The Archies". For the project, the streamer has partnered with Archie Comics. Akhtar is known for her cerebral takes in mainstream Hindi cinema. To give the adaptation an Indian spin, she will be taking us back in time as it will be set in the 1960s.
