Mahesh Bhatt |
Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt's next venture, 'Awarapan', starring Emraan Hashmi and newcomer Shreya Sharan, is an 18-crore film. This is the first time the Bhatts are making such an expensive film. Previously, none of their films have exceeded Rs 5.5, with Anurag Basu's 'Gangster' being their costliest project.
'Awarapan' will be shot in Reunion Island, Hong Kong, Macau and Kashmir. Many foreign technicians known for quality work have been roped in. The film will have lots of action and special effects.
Bhatts want to break free from traditional markets and explore South East Asia. They are upgrading the profile of their products now. They are going to have strategic alliances in the form of international players. |
