Mumbai, Aug 22: Director David Dhawan , who collaborated with Salman Khan for the first time in 1997 film 'Judwaa', said the actor is still as 'natkhat' (naughty) as he was while working on the twin drama. "Salman is a seasoned actor... When he gives a shot, you would feel that he is not interested but he is the most interested actor on sets. He did a good job."

"He works from heart, there is 'thehrav' in his performance. We got that from him. It was my first film with Salman and it was superb working with him. He was 'natkat' and he still is," the director said at the trailer launch of 'Judwaa 2' here.

The director's son Varun is in the double role for the reboot and David is happy to have worked on both the films. "It is great that I am making this film after a gap of 20 years with my son. I was not writing a new script (with 'Judwaa 2'). People loved some eight to ten scenes in the original film and we have got some of it in this film as well."

"It is a today's film, the look and all is different. We have got two popular songs back - 'Chalti Hai Kya Nau Se Bara' and 'Ounchi Hai Building'." According to the filmmaker, it is easy to shoot a double role film provided the actor knows both the roles well.

"The concept of mistaken identity is there since (William) Shakespeare's time. It was done in films like 'Golmaal' and others. Without mistaken identity, you can't make double role films." Also starring Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu in lead roles, 'Judwaa 2' is set to release on September 29.

Dhawan and Govinda were a hit pair like Amitabh Bachchan and Manmohan Desai. When asked whether he would like to be back with Govinda, Dhawan said, "Why not?" Manmohan ji is my guru. I have followed him throughout my career I am grateful to him, who is not there today."

"I make films for entertaining audience. I have worked with all actors and Govinda is different, he has created history. Now I am working with my son."

New Delhi, Feb 24: Indian Idol 11 winner is Bhatinda's Sunny Hindustani. Sunny, who mostly sang Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's songs on the show, won the coveted trophy. The Bhatinda boy took home the Indian Idol 11 trophy along with the prize money of Rs 25 lakh, a car and a singing contract with T-Series.

Sunny's entry on the show was much-talked-about. His soul-soothing voice had mesmerised the judges on the audition day itself as he sang Afreen Afreen. He got a standing ovation and former Indian Idol 11 judge Anu Malik even said that he felt as if Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan himself was performing on the Indian Idol stage. His audition video had gone viral after Anand Mahindra shared it on social media.

On the finale night, Sunny sang a medley of songs, which included Mere Rashke Qamar and Halka Halka Suroor. Ayushmann got emotional seeing Sunny's journey on screen. He said, "Hum na actor bade self-obsessed hote hain. Humein lagta hai hamari struggle sabse achchi hai, sabse badi hai. Inke saamne toh kuch hai he nahi. Jahaan se aye hai, jitna hunar inke paas hai...mujhe lagta hai inki maa sabse ameer hain."

The first and second runner-up of the show Rohit Raut and Ankona Mukherjee got Rs 5 lakh each, while Ridham Kalyan and Adriz Ghosh who were fourth and fifth on the show, took Rs 3 lakh home. Every finalist also received Rs 1 lakh cheque from Lotus Herbals and gift hampers from the sponsors.
