Moving away from dark and intense subjects to pure masala movies, filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali says he is all set to make a 'musical' film, which will be lively and colorful.
Bhansali has dealt with myriad subjects in his films. His directorial debut 'Khamoshi', showed the struggle of a deaf and mute couple, 'Devdas' saw a jilted lover and 'Black' showed the struggles of a blind, deaf and mute girl. His last venture, 'Guzaarish' explored the life of a paraplegic and dealt with the issue of euthanasia.
But with his upcoming films like 'My Friend Pinto', 'Rowdy Rathore' and 'Shirin Farhad' besides, his 'musical' film, it seems the director is in a different zone. "I am back from intense and dark to colors...I am back to colors...I am back to full 'din tadak, paisa vasool' entertainer film. I am moving into that zone again. I am in a bright upbeat mood right now, so I will make a musical movie.
In that film there will be lot of songs like those in 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' or 'Devdas'," Bhansali told PTI in an interview.
"'Rowdy Rathore' and 'Shirin Farhad', a weird comedy...all have taken me to another lane. I don't want to announce it....I will in June-July. I am still working on the musical film," he said.
Directed by Raghav Dar, 'My Friend Pinto' stars Prateik Babbar and Kalki Koechlin. Another project 'Rowdy Rathore', an action film starring Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha is directed by Prabhu Deva. His sister Bela's comedy film 'Shirin Farhad' stars ace choreographer Farah Khan, who is making her acting debut opposite Boman Irani.
