thriller titled Malang. The film is to be
directed by debutant Aarambhh Singh and
produced by T-Series' Bhushan Kumar and
Sandeep Singh and Omung Kumar of Legend
Studios.
The search for the leading lady is on and
according to a leading tabloid, Dutt has
recommended Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for
the film. The director Aarambh confirmed
the news saying, "Yes, Sanjay sir is keen on
Aishwarya, we want to replicate their Shabd
chemistry in our romantic-thriller. He plays
an investigative officer and will require an
actress who is physically fit as she is
involved in the action too."
He further added, "The idea is not only to
keep the audience on the edge of their seats
but also give them a new definition of love
as Sanjay sir will be seen in a love story after
a while."
The film is set to go on floors this December
and will be extensively shot in Varanasi and
Shimla.
Talking about the film, Sanjay had earlier
said, "I have always believed in the passion
of newcomers and fresh talent. I observed
Aarambhh since he was the assisting
Omung during Bhoomi. When he narrated
Malang to me, I looked at Sandeep and said I
am hooked. The layering of my character
and the plot, the setting of Varanasi has me
most excited about this project."
Meanwhile, Sanjay wrapped the shoot of his
comeback film Bhoomi recently. He will also
be seen in Torbaaz, Saheb, Biwi Aur
Gangster 3 and another project with best
friend Ajay Devgn.
