This year, there are many big names with big movies and it seems it’s going to be an amazing year. Now we got to see Nikkhil Advani, a Hindi movie director, announce his latest movie Freedom At Midnight.
After his wonderfully skilled performance as a gay dean in Karan Johar’s Student Of The Year Rishi Kapoor is all set to play Dawood. The super-versatile Rishi Kapoor stepping into Dawood’s white shoes is indeed a cinematic coup. It apparently took director Nikhil Advani who has earlier worked with Rishi Kapoor in <em>Patiala House</em> a good six months to convince the temperamental Kapoor.
Rishi initially said no. Arshad Warsi was being considered for Dawood’s role. But Advani had his heart set on Rishi Kapoor. And he finally got him.
Where on earth is Arshad Warsi these days? If sources are to be believed, the actor is getting ready for the biggest challenge of his career that of playing Dawood Ibrahim in Nikhil Advani’s film D Day.
