Naseeruddin Shah says Kalki Koechlin is 'utterly fantastic'
Directed by Anu Menon, Waiting features Mr Shah as an old-school Philosophy professor while Kalki, 32, plays an advertising professional.

The Ishqiya star has earlier worked with Kalki in the Anurag Kashyap-directed That Girl in Yellow Boots.
