Actor Parvin Dabas is ready with his directorial debut

A time when films are flopping miserably,film actor Parvin Dabas,best know for Monsoon Wedding and Khosla ka Ghosla,feels cinema is going great guns. “The hegemony of film families/dynasties in the industry has made way for corporates to put their money on films and everyone is getting an opportunity,so it is a very exciting time for cinema,” said Dabas,in Lucknow on Monday to promote his first project as a director. The film titled Sahi Bande Ghalat Dhande is produced by a company Very Fishy Films co-owned by him and his model-turned-actress wife Preeti Jhangiani.

“While writing the script,I felt I should direct the film. I and my wife have a goodwill because of our conduct so we found takers (read financiers) for the project,which I finished shooting in a month,” said the director about the film,shot in and around Delhi.

Dabas also plays a part in the film. “It is about four blokes who face the lure of lucre and are expected to do something that pricks their conscience. I play one of the four main characters,” he says about the “action-comedy” and gives out the names of the lead characters as a proof of what wacky stuff it is. “The part I play is called Rajveer,while the rest are named Sexy,Doctor and Ambani. Besides Anupam Kher,Kiran Juneja-Sippy and myself,the cast comprises actors who are relatively less experienced or known.” Slated for an August 18 release,the film’s promos will go on air from July.

“I am sure the montage song ‘Naino ki whisky’ with which we are promoting the film will get the project all the attention it needs. I have tried to blend the songs into the film rather use them as props and material for promotion,” says Dabas,averse to television shows,reality or fiction. “If I ever I show up on it or produce anything for TV,it would probably be a travel show.”
