sunil come back in action

Actor-producer Suniel Shetty, who exchanged his image for more subtle and comic roles, now wants to go back to action-thrillers.

His Popcorn Entertainment is to produce an action-thriller to be directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia.

“It’s been a while since I did a full-on action film. So much time has passed since my last stunt-special that people have forgotten that side of me,” Suniel told IANS.

“Though my next release Ashwin Dheer’s ‘123′ is again a comedy, let me assure you it’s no ordinary comedy. My next venture with Tigmanshu is an action thriller with a touch of comedy.”

Though nobody is giving away the plot, this Tigmanshu Dhulia thriller is supposedly based on the 2004 action film “Paparazzi”, directed by Paul Abascal and featuring Cole Hauser as a film star on a revenge spree.

SUNIEL SHETTY opts out of Singh Is Kinng

All were shocked when VIPUL SHAH managed to get the alleged rivals SUNIEL SHETTY and AKSHAY KUMAR together for his film Singh Is Kinng. It may have been a casting coup of sorts, if their rivalry was for real. But Akshay didn’t get along, then why should he co-produce a film like Bhagam Bhaag, or even cast me in it? There’s no problem between us.” However, the majority just refuses to believe this.

Anyway, only recently Shetty, who was initially to be a part of Vipul’s next venture starring Akshay Kumar and KATRINA KAIF, opted out of the film, Shah explains. “We tried coordinating the dates, but unfortunately Suniel is required to be on the sets of his home production venture Mission Istanbul.

We will certainly work together at the next given opportunity.” Apparently, Suniel was to shoot a 25-day long schedule for Singh.. in Gold Coast, Australia. But the actor-producer could not be away from his home production venture, Mission Istanbul for such a long time and had to even resolve some problems in Turkey where the film is being shot. But filmmaker Vipul assures us that getting Akshay and Suniel together in one frame is definitely not mission impossible.
