There has been a buzz that writer, producer, director Anees Bazmee has signed Akshay Kumar and Deepika Padukone for his next venture to be directed by UTV. This will be their third project together as having done Chandni Chowk To China before, they are presently also doing Sajid Khan’s Housefull.
Speaking to IloveBolly.com Anees Bazmee said, “I have not signed anyone as yet. We are in talks. I am interested and so is UTV in doing a film together. We are working on the economics right now.”
Meanwhile director Bazmee is also busy completing his next titled It’s My Life with Hurman S Baweja, Genelia D’Souza and Nana Patekar. “The subject of this film is close to my heart. It is on the lines of Pyar To Hona Hi Tha, unlike other comedies that I have director so far” added Bazmee.
Hurman’s earlier ventures Love Story 2050 and Victory were great box office duds but director Bazmee is confident about his venture. “I have not seen both the films but I am confident of my subject. His earlier films Love story dealt with future whereas Victor went into the past. My film is totally a today’s film. I am confident because I know the grammar of a good script. Nana Patekar has performed a unique role in the film. It has music by Shankar Ehsaan Loy and has been shot in Norway, Bangkok and Delhi” Bazmee revealed.
The director also added that marketing plays an important aspect in the success of the film. “I am paying a lot of attention towards it since I have realised that a lot of actors are working out on strategies of marketing before their releases.”
“After the completion of this film I will be starting work on Anil Kapoor‘s film in March starring Anil Kapoor himself alongwith Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Sushmita Sen and Paresh Rawal. This will be a hardcore commercial venture an action comedy.” he concluded.
