Director Vikram Bhatt set to make acting debut in his own web series

More from the world of Entertainment:

While he is yet to start shooting for the series, Vikram hinted that acting might be a one-off thing for him. “I am not even sure I will continue to act. Untouchables might be my only acting assignment. There’s no urge to act.” Besides Untouchables, the filmmaker also launched five other web series, which he is producing under his banner Loneranger Productions.

For the most part of his career he worked with Vishesh Films, the production house of Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt. Vikram revealed it was Mahesh, who made a suggestion about starting his own company. “Bhatt saab told me that the time had come for me to start my own thing. He said, ‘You always have had your own path. People told you not to take make horror, you made horror films. They asked you to not make erotic movies, you were adamant about this genre as well. So, you are a lone ranger. Go ahead’.”

Professional separation has, however, not caused any change in his personal equation with his mentor, as Vikram said he still goes to Mahesh for advices and tips. “Every day I talk to Mahesh Bhatt. I send him the posters (of his series), the scenes… My work isn’t complete if he has not seen it.”
