Emraan Hashmi
Putting to rest all talk about friction during the making of Kalyug, Emran Hashmi and the Bhatt camp's new blue-eyed boy, Kunal Khemu, are coming together for Kalyug director Mohit Suri's film on male-bonding, to be called Friends.
Bearing no relation to the popular TV series by the same name, Suri's Friends will take the Kalyug companions away from Zurich, to London.
Runaway pals
Kunal Khemu
Says Suri, "It's the story of two runaway friends, set against the backdrop of the London-tube bombings, to be shot entirely in London."
The director says he has no plans to cash on the current Bollywood trend of buddy-buddy films.
"I'm trying to get my dream project, Awaarapan, in place," he says. "If Emran Hashmi (who is likely to play Mahesh Bhatt in the film) can't give dates, I'll make Friends first."
No enmity?
Weren't Hashmi and Khemu at loggerheads during the making of Kalyug? During the climax, when Khemu found out Hashmi would get to kill Ashutosh Rana, he put his foot down; Hashmi had to relent and let his junior do the honours. Also, Khemu accused him of hogging the limelight.
But Khemu denies having differences with Hashmi. "Emran and I get along like a house on fire. I never accused him of cornering all the publicity," he claims.
