John Abraham and Milan Luthria team up again
After the super-successful Taxi No. 9211, Milan Luthria and John Abraham are once again coming together for a film which John will not only act in but also co-produce with Milan.
Milan Luthria says, "Yes…I am doing a film with John Abraham. This is a script which we have been working on for the past 8 months. After 'Taxi No. 9211' (which many people feel is John's best work till date), John and I felt that we need to come together again. As far as John co-producing the film is concerned, we are in talks, the logistics need to be worked out and we are yet to finalize the details"
So what genre will the film belong to? "It's a very unique and interesting story. Revealing anything more at this point of time will spoil the fun. But let me tell you that with this film John (who is already a chick-magnet) will be catapulted to being a huge international heart-throb. It has a lot of potential and hence we are trying to keep the story under wraps", says Milan.
Before this film, Milan already has 'Once Upon A Time in Mumbai' with Ajay Devgan and Emraan Hashmi in lead roles. So when does he plan to start this film? "We have worked out the dates with John. Right now he is in the middle of 'Hook Ya Crook' and then he has '1-800 Love'. Even I am also busy with my film, 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbai' which goes on floors in May this year. I finish shooting for that in July and post that, somewhere in August we plan to start this film with John"
Coming back to the idea of John co-producing the film, how did this all happen? "See... John has a very strong business mind. He is an MBA with good marketing and advertising experience at the corporate level. We both have a certain level of trust and comfort level with each other. When we discussed about this film, we both felt that we needed to control this project completely because apart from a great script, the film also has a lot of potential for marketing, merchandising, franchising, tie-ups, remakes in different languages etc.", says the excited filmmaker.
