Producer Shilpa Shetty excited for her gangster film

October 28, 2013

Shilpa_Shetty_copyMumbai, Oct 28: Actress Shilpa Shetty is quite excited about her upcoming film 'Dishkiyaaoon', which is set in the backdrop of Mumbai underworld.

Shilpa has donned producer's hat for the film, which stars Sunny Deol, Harman Baweja and debutante Ayesha Khanna.

"It is full-on masala entertainer. It is an interesting film on underworld, imagine Shilpa Shetty making a film on Mumbai underworld, it sounds bizarre. But I loved the script. It is the story of a guy who wants to make it as a gangster... the struggle of this one guy. It is an emotional story. It has beautiful songs," Shilpa told PTI in an interview.

Many underworld films these days are inspired by real-life gangsters from Dawood Ibrahim to Manya Surve. But Shilpa is not willing to share who the protagonist of her film is based on.

"I can't comment on that" was all she said.

The film is set to release on January 10 next year. Reportedly, Sunny Leone-starrer 'Ragini MMS 2' is likely to release on the same day.

"We are not shifting the release date. I would be worried if an action film would have got released (simultaneously), ours is an action entertainer and 'Ragini MMS 2' is a horror film and there is space for every film," she said.

There is a buzz about sequel to her hit film 'Dhadkan'.

"Obviously I can't do it. Ratan Jain (producer) is looking forward to do the film and I wish him all the best," she said.

Acting is not her priority now as she wants to be with her son Viaan. "I would not work (act) for another one and half years as it is the most crucial time with my child. I don't miss acting.... There is no time to

miss it as there is so much happening in my life these days. I do few things on-screen for creative satisfaction," Shilpa said.

"I can't be unfair to a film and I don't want to be unfair to my filmmakers. I can't live without my child.

"Every day he is saying something new, he is doing something crazy. Now he has got this obsession of beach. Every day is a new thing, new day and I don't want to miss any single moment with him," she said.

Washington, Jun 20: American actor Angelina Jolie has now opened up about her 2016 divorce announcement with Brad Pitt, which shocked fans.

Fox News said the 45-year-old Jolie opened up about leaving the father of her six kids,18-year-old Maddox, 16-year-old Pax, 15-year-old Zahara, 12-year-old, Shiloh, and 11-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

"I separated for the well-being of my family. It was the right decision. I continue to focus on their healing," the Oscar-winning star told Vogue India magazine.

The 'Maleficent' star added, "Some have taken advantage of my silence, and the children see lies about themselves in the media, but I remind them that they know their own truth and their own minds. In fact, they are six very brave, very strong young people."

Since 2004, Pitt and Jolie were together but only married in August 2014 at their estate in France.

The 'Mr and Mrs Smith' star previously told Harper's Bazaar magazine how the last few years have been physically, emotionally and mentally turbulent for her.

"My body has been through a lot over the past decade, particularly the past four years, and I have both the visible and invisible scars to show for it," Jolie said.

"The invisible ones are harder to wrestle with. Life takes many turns. Sometimes you get hurt, you see those you love in pain, and you can't be as free and open as your spirit desires. It's not new or old, but I do feel the blood returning to my body," she added.

Besides her marriage ending on the public stage, Jolie underwent a preventative double mastectomy in 2013 followed by breast reconstruction after testing positive for the BRCA gene. In 2015, the actor 'Girl, Interrupted' star also had her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed.

She admitted it has taken a while for her to feel like her old self. She said, "The part of us that is free, wild, open, curious can get shut down by life. By pain or by harm."
