Sexy trio wanted for AAA film
Unlike Julie, an 'A' certificate won't do for Deepak Shivdasani's next film. With three Bollywood Bombshells making an explosive appearance, A.A.A could be thrice as hot.
Unlike Julie, an 'A' certificate won't do for Deepak Shivdasani's next film. With three Bollywood Bombshells making an explosive appearance, A.A.A could be thrice as hot.
Sushmita Sen, Mallika Sherawat, Bipasha Basu and Neha Dhupia are among the femme fatales that Shivdasani wants for his triple A project. The oomph factor admits the director of films like Baaghi and Yeh Raaste Hain Pyaar Ke, will certainly decide the ones who make the final cut.
"Everyone is curious about the casting and there are a lot of rumours doing the rounds in the industry. Let me just say that I have approached only Sushmita Sen so far. I sent a copy of the script and have discussed the role with her a couple of times as well. Things are moving as planned and we should be able to finalise the details by the end of this month. Although I have made up my mind about the other actresses too, it won't be fair to reveal anything at this stage," he says.
Despite his self-imposed cloak of secrecy, Shivdasani gives a tantalising glimpse into what the audience can expect. According to him: "I think Neha, Bipasha and Mallika can fit into the kind of character I have in mind. All of them are bold, sexy and have often sizzled on screen." At least two of the three, hints the filmmaker, will be a part of A.A.A.
Those looking forward to another skin-fest from Shivdasani are however likely to be disappointed. A.A.A., he insists, will not begin where Julie left off. "I have had excellent response for Julie. I am sure people will like A.A.A. just as much. And since there seems to be some confusion on this point, let me also clarify that my film is not a desi version of the Hollywood blockbuster Charlie's Angels. A.A.A. stands for Anjali, Anna and Anamika. Like Charlie's Angels there are a trio of women playing the lead, but that is where the similarity ends," he quips.
