Meanwhile, Bollywood's dynamic father-daughter duo of Anil Kapoor and Sonam are all set to share screen space for the first time in the Shelly Chopra Dhar-directorial.
Also starring Rajkummar Rao and Juhi Chawla, the film will hit the theatres on October 12.
The announcement was made on Monday on the official website of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The new invitees are an effort on the Oscar-giving body to include more women, people of colour and international filmmakers.
Actor Irrfan Khan and late veteran actress Sridevi were named the Best Actors at the 19th edition of the IIFA Awards, for their remarkable work in films "Hindi Medium" and "Mom", respectively.
