RGV to make cop flick

Bollywood filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma is busy these days with his new project. The director is actually making a sequel to his 2002 film Department that was itself a prequel to the Nana Patekar’s starrer Ab Tak Chhapan.


The movie revolves around encounter specialists who fall apart following a fight between dons who they owe their loyalty to. The filmmaker wants to cast Pradeep Sharma, Vijay Salaskar, Daya Nayak and Sachin Vaze, Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan and Abhishek Bachchan playing the cops while the megastar Amitabh Bachchan will be playing the role of a senior cop.

The twist that comes in the film is when Sanjay Dutt, who plays the role of Pradeep Sharma and Ajay Devgan who plays Daya Nayak, forces others in the department including Abhishek Bachchan who plays Sachin Vaze to take sides. What else follows remains the bottom line of the film.

Working with Salman is tough

Bollywood director and screenwriter Abhinav Kashyap very well knowing the fact that actor Salman Khan was a huge star, considered himself very lucky when Salman Khan gave the nod to his film, Dabangg.


But it was only when Abhinav Kashyap started shooting with Salman Khan that he actually realized Salman’s superstar status and massive popularity amongst the masses. The director also had to get familiarized with the timings when Sallu would report for his shots. The director said that with Salman, the day starts off late. He comes in by 10.30 a.m. and is ready to shoot by 12 for a 9 a.m. shift. But once the superstar gets into action, every scene gets canned pretty fast and we would always wind up the shoot on time. The movie also featured Sonakshi Sinha playing the lead role.
