Rishi Kapoor plays a politician in
Aayee Bala Ko Taal Tu
While Ram Kapoor plays his
opponent in the political satire
After playing the lawyer and a
crusader who helps 14-year old
Lakshmi, forced into
prostitution, in her fight for
justice in Nagesh Kukunoor's
film titled Lakshmi, actor Ram
Kapoor will be seen playing a
politician in his next titled, Aayee
Bala Ko Taal Tu.
Directed by debutant Shubho
Shekhar Bhattacharya, the film
went on floors recently with its
first schedule in Chandigarh. It is
produced by Arindam Chaudhuri
who had earlier produced Do
Dooni Chaar.
"Aayee Bala ... is a political satire,
a black comedy, in which both
Rishi Kapoor and I play
politicians belonging to rival
parties," reveals Ram Kapoor
while not willing to disclose
more details about the film that
also stars Konkona Sen Sharma
and Divya Dutta.
Talking about Lakshmi, he says
that as actors, "we can do
projects like these to help tell the
story. Whenever, I get a chance
to do such a film, I will definitely
do it. I am always on the look-
out for a good script in off-beat
cinema as I love doing such
films." Meanwhile, Kapoor is
keeping his fingers crossed,
hoping that people will come
and watch the film as, "Lakshmi
is not a film which you would
want to see for entertainment. It
is a hard-hitting film and not
easy to watch."
The actor has wrapped up the
shooting of Sajid Khan's
Humshakals in which he plays a
triple role. While talks about
making the sequel to Mere Dad
Ki Maruti are on, and both
Saquib Salim and Kapoor have
been confirmed, the makers,
Yash Raj Films are on the
lookout for a good script. "As
soon as the script is locked, we
shall start work on the film. I
shall definitely do it, as this is the
film which I carried on my
shoulders and it helped me get
bigger projects like Shaadi Ke
Side Effects, Student Of The Year
etc. It took me 10 years to
achieve the top position in
television. I believe in going
slow and steady, doing the right
projects and gradually moving
on to bigger things. That's the
game plan," explains the actor.
Kapoor will also be seen in the
comedy, Santa Banta directed by
Akashdeep Sabir with Boman
Irani which is slated to release
in April or May.
