Filmmaker Apoorva Lakhia, known for making the hit crime thriller 'Shootout At Lokhandwala', has trashed rumours that his film with Sanjay Dutt is based on policemen who battled Sikh extremism.
"I don't know where all this has come from. There is no film that I am doing on the Khalistan movement. Yes, I am doing a film with Sanjay Dutt, but it is more on the lines of 'Shootout At Lokhandwala' - something based on a recent event in Mumbai and something about cops," Lakhia told us over phone from Mumbai.
So is it about the brutal 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks that took place last year?
"No way! Not at all. It has nothing to do with 26/11. It is based on a two- paragraph story I read in the newspaper about an event in the city involving some cops," he said.
The movie will be directed by Lakhia in association with Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Private Limited.
Lakhia is at present busy with post- production of his first home production 'Hide & Seek', a romantic thriller that has an ensemble cast, including actors like Purab Kohli, Arjan Bajwa, Sameer Kochar and Ajaaz Khan.
The film is being directed by his assistant Shawn Arranha.
" 'Hide & Seek' is an exciting story about how six young friends play a game of hide and seek and one incident makes them drift apart for 15 years. Now to unravel the mystery of the incident, they have to play the game all over again. It has hints of childhood crushes and romance - basically it's going to be a romantic thriller," said Lakhia.
