Dibakar banerjee Mukesh Bhatt, Kunal Deshmukh and Emraan Hashmi have worked on two films in the past, Jannat and Tum Mile, and they are now gearing up for the third one, tentatively titled XXX. But this time, all three are completely clueless and seem to be on very different pages.
An insider tells us, "The film is two steps ahead of Kalyug and is based on the porn industry in India . The plot has three stories.
Emraan Hashmi is not doing the film, just like he was reluctant to do Kalyug initially. He also backed out of Dibakar Banerjee's film Love, Sex Aur Dhokha because he is not comfortable with sex scenes anymore.
He wants to change his 'serial kisser image'. The film has been made on the lines of Love, Sex Aur Dhokha and stars only fresh faces.
" While not denying that the film is based on the Indian porn industry, Mukesh Bhatt confirms, "Yes, Emraan is not doing the film. But Bhatt's reasons are different though.
"It's because Kunal Deshmukh wants to work with fresh faces." When asked if Emraan opted out because he wants to change his image, Bhatt adds, "He cannot come out of it.
Salman Khan cannot do away with his stud image. People have got their own slots.
They cannot change their image." However, when we called Emraan Hashmi to ask why is he not doing Kunal Deshmukh's XXX, the actor sent a rather strange SMS reply that read, "Yessssssss, I am doing XXX. "That's rather assertive of you Emraan! Despite our attempts to get to the bottom of this confusion, neither Mukesh Bhatt nor Emraan answered our calls. So, we called Kunal Deshmukh again, who surprisingly gave an entirely new story this time.
He said, "I have not spoken to Mukeshji about casting yet. I am still working on the script. Once the script shapes up, only then I will work on the casting." When asked if Emraan has agreed to do his film, Kunal added, "No, Emraan has not said yes to my film because he hasn't read the script.
I have not spoken to Emraan because he is in Bangkok . We have done Jannat and Tum Mile earlier and we share a great rapport, but I haven't pitched the idea to him for this one.
I am waiting for the script to get ready first." On being told about Mukesh Bhatt and Emraan Hashmi's varied statements, Kunal said, "There seems to be a lot of confusion.
Mukeshji and I are not on the same page. Emraan and I are on the same page but there seems to be some confusion there also.
" Will someone please exxxplain!
