| Tarun Manuskhani back with Dostana 2! By Subhash K Jha, 16 December, 2009 |
 Karan Johar's production house Dharma now feels the need to pull up its socks especially after its biggest turkey in years, Kurbaan. Dostana director Tarun Mansukhani has been asked to complete the script for Dostana 2 immediately.Tarun says, "We will start shooting the sequel in April 2010. I'm just about locking in the script. We want to give the film a nice summery look in London. So far, Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham are the only cast members who are confirmed." In this rush to release a comedy which may prove to be more commercially viable, Nishikant Kamat's (director of Mumbai Meri Jaan) film with John which was to start early 2010, has now been pushed to July 2010. Confirming this, the reclusive director says, "I think John has one other film to finish before he comes to my project. So I have more time to work on my script. I've been locked away in my native village most of this year writing the film." Kamat continues to tell us about the project, "I love the cinema of Karan Johar, Aditya Chopra and Sooraj Barjatya and that's the kind of mass entertainment we're attempting. John and I have been friends for a long time. We sat and discussed what kind of a film to make. We both thought an adventure-action-romance was a far bigger challenge than a topical subject." His film with John will be produced by UTV. And it's likely that UTV would also be on board for Dostana 2. So a shuffle seems very much on the cards. After the heavy losses Kurbaan incurred, UTV's Siddharth Kapoor cautiously says, "We're in a long-term association with Dharma. So the intention is to collaborate closely with them on their future productions. But nothing has been formalised for Dostana 2." |
