All set to make a biopic on Kishore Kumar, Nagesh Kukunoor is back IT was all about looking into the future for Bollywood with films like Aa Dekhen Zara, 13 B and Kal Kissne Dekha hitting the screens in the recent times. But now it is flashback time and forthcoming movies will see popular actors exploring the times that have gone by.
I am happy that Tasveer released but as far as the business the film did, everything wasn’t in my hands. The problem between multiplex owners and distributors started just at that time. So, are you now looking forward to Aashayein? Even it has got delayed by a long time now But it won’t get delayed any longer. It will release soon`85within a couple of months if everything goes fine. I have pinned a lot of hope on this film too and like all my films, this film too is completely different. You are making a film on Kishore Kumar and have already started working on it Oh yes that is one film I long wished to make. I have been a great fan of Kishore Kumar and have always thought of making a film on him. But it isn’t that easy. Given the magnanimous personality of Kishore Kumar, one has to be very cautious. There shouldn’t be any error and I am taking utmost care to give a great entertainer. You have already started your research work The research work isn’t that easy. It is a long and tedious process but yes I am doing a lot of research to make everything look as real as possible. I will soon start shooting for it. So, who plays Kishore Kumar? My choice is Shreyas (Talpade). I think he will be great and after all he too is a great Kishoreda fan like me. Just like me, Shreyas too knows a number of Kishoreda songs by heart and I would ideally like him to play Kishoreda. Let’s see what happens finally? But it will be a great responsibility on the actor to live up to the expectations of the audiences I know it is but Shreyas would be good. I don’t want a big star because then the actor’s image will interrupt Kishoreda’s image. See right now, I am researching on Kishoreda and then have to talk to the producers before everything is finalised`85so it wouldn’t be fair talking much about it. Despite always giving something new with every film of yours, last year didn’t go that well, as Bombay To Bangkok didn’t create any buzz But that’s not in my hands. It was a good film but after making a film you don’t have any more control over the film. It is then completely up to the audiences. I have always believed in giving something new to the audiences with every film. None of my films bear any resemblance with other. Right from Hyderabad Blues to Rockford, Teen Deewarein, Iqbal, Dor and now Tasveer — all the stories are completely different from the other. Aashayein has been stuck for a while now. Are you feeling restless with luck not going your way? There had been some problems, which delayed Aashayein for around seven months but now everything has been sorted out, it will release soon. I am actually thrilled that after a long time, now all my films will release one after the other and what I can promise is that every film and every story will be different. What can we expect from Aashayein? Watch out John in a
completely different role in this film. It will be a revelation for
his fans and I am sure John too is expecting a lot from this film. In
the meantime, I am also giving the finishing touches to Yeh Hausla
and that releases sometime by August. —
