Mumbai, Jun 11: Choreographer-director Remo D'Souza has expressed a desire to make his dream project - a period drama film - with Hrithik Roshan.

remo hrithikThe ace choreographer, who is awaiting the release of his next directorial venture dance-drama "ABCD 2", said he is very excited about the film.

"I have one dream project and I am working on it. It's a period drama.. epic movie. It is a very huge film. I don't think anyone will help but if 'ABCD 2' works, then they (filmmakers) might trust. And if it happens, I will make it," Remo said in an interview here.

Remo said he has Hrithik Roshan in his mind for the film and is looking for a Hollywood face to play the female lead.

"I have Hrithik Roshan in mind. For actress, I have to cast somebody from Hollywood. It will be the only film that will have no dance but only action," Remo said.

The "F.A.L.T.U" helmer said his wish of making south superstar Rajinikanth, Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bahchan, and choreographer-director Prabhu Deva dance, has been fulfilled and now it is actress Madhuri Dixit who features on his wish-list.

"I would love to make Madhuri Dixit dance. If I do a film with her, it definitely has to be a 'Madhuri Dixit-film'. I don't want to cast her in a small role. I will do a full- fledged dance film with her," he said.

"There are some ideas in mind right now, but let's see how it shapes up. For last four years I am sitting with her (referring to judging dance reality show 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa') and we chat and talk about it. She says whenever you are ready with it, please let me know."

Remo's other project is a superhero-drama film "Turbanator" starring Tiger Shroff and Jacqueline Fernandez.

"This film is with Jacqueline Fernandez and Tiger Shroff. It's a superhero film and there is lots of action. You will see Tiger flying and doing all kinds of super hero stuff," he said.

Mumbai, May 17: TV actor Manmeet Grewal, who worked on shows like "Aadat Se Majboor" and "Kuldeepak", committed suicide after struggling with dwindling finances amid lockdown, family friend-producer Manjit Singh Rajput said.

Grewal, who was originally from Punjab, hanged himself on Friday night at his Kharghar residence here where he lived with his wife. He was 32.

Rajput, who had known Grewal for nearly seven years, said the actor was facing "financial crisis" and wasn't able to earn due to the lockdown. 

"He was going through a major financial issue and he was also in depression. The added pressure of not being able to repay loans amid this (no work phase) got to him. His wife is completely shocked and devastated," Rajput told PTI.

The producer said last rites of the actor were performed on Saturday. 

Grewal was working on projects like a webseries and some commercials, which were put on hold due to the nationwide lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Mumbai, Jul 27: Action director Parvez Khan, known for his work in films like Sriram Raghavan's Andhadhun and Badlapur, died on Monday after suffering a massive heart attack. He was 55. 

Parvez, who worked in the industry since 1986, was rushed to Ruby Hospital after he complained of chest pain, his longtime associate Nishant Khan told PTI. "He suffered a major heart attack in the morning. He was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced dead. He didn't have any health issues but felt chest pain last night," Nishant said.

Filmmaker Hansal Mehta, who worked with Parvez in the National Award winning 2013 drama Shahid, said the action director was extremely skilled. "Just heard that action director Parvez Khan is no more. We had worked together in Shahid where he executed the riots sequence in a single take. Very skilful, energetic and a good man. RIP Parvez. Your voice still rings in my ears," Hansal tweeted. 

Parvez started his career by assisting action director Akbar Bakshi in films like Akshay Kumar's Khiladi (1992), Shah Rukh Khan's Baazigar (1993) and Bobby Deol-starrer Soldier in 1998. It was with Ram Gopal Varma's Ab Tak Chhappan in 2004 that he started working independently and went on to have a long-standing collaboration with filmmaker Sriram Raghavan in films such as Johnny Gaddaar (2007), Saif Ali Khan-starrer Agent Vinod in 2012 and Badlapur, featuring Varun Dhawan. He is survived by wife, son, daughter-in-law and a granddaughter.
