“I had thought of a sequel while watching Don. Don 1 had a different ending, where the bad guy lives on while the good one gets killed. My story idea emerged from there and I told it to Farhan. He liked it and we went ahead with it,”says Amrish.

Earlier, in 2006, Amrish had made a documentary on Mother Teresa titled, Beatification Of Mother Teresa, which was later showcased at the Cannes Film Festival, receiving acclaim from an international audience.

Amirsh’s third film is a spy thriller Codename Anthony, produced by iDream. It is a fast-paced thriller.

Farhan Akhtar’s Don 2, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Lara Dutta and Priyanka Chopra, is set to release on December 23.
