Producer-director
Mahesh Bhatt will enter house the Bigg Boss house for announcing Jism 2
– the sequel to the film Jism that was made in the year 2003. Mahesh Bhatt
will be in the Bigg Boss house only for a few hours only. He also said that, as
Bigg Boss is a popular platform, that’s why he took a decision to make an announcement
there.
He further
said that the announcement of the film is equally important as is the making of
the film. For that reason it has to be done publicly. He believes that making
the announcement on a popular reality show like BB would not only give it
instant popularity, but also have a good positive impact.
The acclaimed
director also said that it was his daughter Pooja who wished to work with Sunny
Leone for eight years now. And it is her decision to cast Sunny in Jism 2.
When asked why a porn star should star in a Bollywood flick, Mr. Bhatt said
that Sunny is a girl who represents the story of the film as she has come from
a background that involves a lot of struggle.
She suits
the narrative of the film’s story, Mr. Bhatt said. He also revealed that they
wanted Sunny Leone in the 2003 film itself – Jism. But things did not go
to plan then.
In the
meantime, Mahesh Bhatt rubbished reports that claimed that he had approached
the porn star for Jism. However, he did admit that the production house
was contemplating casting her in the lead. However, things didn’t fall in place
then.
