Aneez Bazmee writing 3 scripts of diverse genres

After a string of comedies, a suspense thriller from Bazmee sounds like an unlikely development.

But he says: “It’s not a new genre for me, I had earlier made the film ‘Deewangee’ with Ajay Devgn, Akshaye Khanna and Urmila Matondkar… people had loved the film, so I hope they like this one too.”

“People liked it so much that numerous producers told me that I could make only suspense thrillers and they wanted me to make suspense thrillers for them. I wanted to make a comedy, so I didn’t make that film then,” the writer-director added.

His last film “Welcome Back” was a challenge for him since superstar Akshay Kumar wasn’t part of the sequel. But still, the film lived up to the challenge and earned close to Rs.100 crore at the box-office. “It was a beautiful film which people loved and appreciated and it was a big hit, so I’m very happy,” he said.

Sex comedies have been ruling the roost with “Mastizaade” and “Kya Kool Hain Hum 3”, but Bazmee has always kept his comedies clean. “Honestly and personally, I feel that making a comedy film is not comedy. It is quite difficult, especially clean comedies. My fans love these films, so the endeavour is to keep on making such films.”
