Year 2002, Vipul Shah directed his debut film Aankhen that starred Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Arjun Rampal, Sushmita Sen and Bipasha Basu. Gaurang Doshi produced the film.
Twleve years later, Gaurang Doshi is set to roll with the sequel but this time Anees Bazmee will helm the project.
Gaurang Doshi reportedly had a fall out with Vipul Shah during the making of Aankhen. They had a very bitter parting and the sequel remained uncertain for all these years.
Interestingly Anees Bazmee had a fall out with Vipul Shah during the making of Singh Is Kinng and now both Gaurang Doshi and Anees Bazmee have teamed up for Aakhen 2.
“Yes, Gaurang and I have met over Aankhen 2. I am right now in Ahmedabad for a function. As soon as I return to Mumbai, we will finalise the details.” stated Aneez Bazmee.
“Twelve years seems like a long time to sit on a sequel. But what to do? So much has happened since then. Aankhen 2 will have a completely new cast. But I can assure you, the actors would be as exciting this time as they were in Aankhen. God willing we’ll make a stupendous success. Anees is the king of successful sequels.” stated an elated Gaurang Doshi.
On the other hand, Vipul Shah has nothing to complain about considering the fact that his film Holiday done well at the Box Office.
We would like to wish both Gaurang Doshi and Aneez Bazmee all the luck.
