Divya Khossla is preparing to release Savi, which stars Anil Kapoor and Harshvardhan Rane in pivotal roles. The film was directed by Abhinay Deo and produced by Mukesh Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar.

While Divya and John Abraham were promoting Satyameva Jayate 2, there were suggestions that both actors would appear together in a Mukesh Bhatt-produced film. When Savi was announced, John’s name was not linked to the film.

In an exclusive interview with Filmibeat, Divya and Abhinay discussed John’s casting in the film. When asked about the claims and whether John was being considered for the film, Divya responded, “I don’t know how those reports came out. I think at that time Satyameva Jayate 2 was coming, so probably from somewhere that report came. But, it was nothing like that.”

Abhinay added, “No, it might be something related to Satyameva Jayate 2.”

Well, it appears that there were only rumours regarding John and Divya starring in the film. But if John had starred in the film, we wonder which role he would have played: Harshvardhan’s or Anil Kapoor’s.

Divya while talking about her experience of working with Anil Kapoor, the actress told the news portal, “I take a lot of pressure on my own, I am a perfectionist, so I don’t need to take a pressure of someone else. I think it was amazing working with him because he is giving his 1000%, I am giving my 1000%. A lot of times it happens that, you are perfoming and if with some actor you click it so well that it’s magic, and with Anil sir I have experienced that whatever was happening it was magic. He is so passionate even at this age, he keeps mentioning his age ‘main 68 ka hu’, but his passion, commitment and sincerity towards work is so amazing.”

Savi is slated to release on 31st May 2024.

Delhi Belly director, Abhinay Deo on Imran Khan’s decision to quit acting

Mansi More — Thu, 01 Jul 2021 05:39:32 +0000

On the 10th anniversary of Delhi Belly’s release, director Abhinay Deo expressed his views on Imran Khan’s decision to quit acting. He was shocked by the news. The actor had also refused some of his film offers. The filmmaker said that Imran is a talented person and will surely find one or the other way to express his creativity.

In an interview with SpotboyE, Abhinay said, “I felt sad as I have high regard for that man. He is a great guy and there is any way a shortage of good people in this world.” He added, “He is one of the good guys and he should be there in this industry. He is a talented guy, whether in front of the camera or behind it. He is a trained filmmaker and a writer too. I feel he should get his creativity out in any form that he can. But I did feel bad that he did not want to act anymore.”

Further, he said, “As a matter of fact, Imran refused a couple of my films because he said he was stopping acting and I was taken aback a bit by that, otherwise he would have been a part of one of my films four years back. But he didn’t want to go down that route at all as he was reinventing himself. I think every person has a process and I am sure we will see some spectacular work from him in the future.”

Aamir Khan’s nephew, Imran Khan, made his acting debut with the 2008 movie, Jaane Tu…Ya Jaane Na, with Genelia Dsouza. He was also seen in movies like, ‘Mere brother ki Dulhan’, ‘I hate Luv storys’, ‘Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu’, and many others. However, he was not seen in any movie after 2015, Katti Batti, starring Kangana Ranaut, Mithila Palkar, and Vivan Bhatena. In November, Imran’s friend, actor Akshay Oberoi was the first one to confirm that he has quit acting. Akshay also stated that Imran may direct a film soon.

Sachin Tendulkar Joins Hands With Delhi Belly Director Abhinay Deo, Unveils ‘The Greatest Lesson’

From being beaten, hurt and damaged to emerge as ‘The God of Cricket,’ it has been an unparalleled journey for Sachin Tendulkar, who stays on to be a living legend. The lesson that his life story narrates? Failure is the ‘Fuel of Champions.’ All of this and more is what Delhi Belly director Abhinay Deo’ ad film “The Greatest Lesson” narrates which is a testimony of how a true hero rises up from the challenge.

“The ad showcases a nostalgic chapter of overcoming failure whilst maneuvering the ‘never give up’ spirit. It also portrays a motivational lesson of silence, hard work and perseverance contributing into achieving success. Further, the campaign also underlines the fact that failure should never be forgotten but embraced and utilized to work towards your goals,” informs a certain member from the creative team.

No wonder, for decades Sachin Tendulkar has been an epitome of relentless human spirit in its pursuit of excellence.

Says Abhinay Deo, “One seldom gets a chance to make a poignant film like this which centers on the concept of not ever giving up in the face of adversity. Who better than the God of cricket Sachin Tendulkar to be the face of such a strong message to the youth of today.”

Considering the fact that this is season of examination and continuous education is the need of the hour, the ad caters to students as well as professionals alike.

Continues Abhinay, who would also be beginning Aankhen 2 with Amitabh Bachchan soon, “Me and my team went through thousands of hours of footage of the master blaster’s various innings, right from his first one to the last, and put together an edit which can do justice to the brand message as well as to a lifetime of hard work and achievements of one the greatest cricketers in the world.”

No wonder, the TVC has not just crossed over 6.5 crore views on social media within just five days, it has also been applauded by sportsperson like Virendra Sehwag, Harsha Bhogle, V.V.S Laxman along with actresses Shraddha Kapoor and Disha Patani.

While Shraddha stated, “Watch the brilliant moments of this amazing film! Sachin you are a legend.”, Disha felt goosebumps and said, “…thank you Sachin for making me fall in love with the game. Your passion is inspiring.”

While it is always heartening to relive the magic surrounding Sachin Tendulkar and the memories have come alive all over again after watching the ad, one waits to see the magic of Aankhen 2 as well once Big B is back in action with Abhinay Deo for the second in the franchise.
