I want to work with Rani: Abhi

Abhishek Bachchan is eagerly looking forward for his film Dum Maaro Dum to hit screens.

Talking about the film in a recent interview, Abhishek said that he wants to change audiences' perception about him being a non-actor with the film. Abhishek's last release Raavan, Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Se and Game have been box office disasters and he wishes to set cash registers ringing with Dum Maaro Dum.

The actor also candidly talked about how favourite co-stars. He said, "Rani is the best co-star I have ever worked with. She's beautiful and is a brilliant actor." When asked if he would like to work with her again, Abhi promptly replied, "Of course, I would love to work with her."

It can be recalled that Abhishek and Rani, who have worked in films like Yuva, Bunty Aur Babli, Laga Chunri Mein Daag and Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, had been linked up with each other before Abhi-Ash's marriage. There were also rumours that the two are planning to tie the knot. Though audience felt that Jr. Bachchan and the bong beauty made an awesome couple, the two refrained from working together.

However, now with Abhishek's confession, we look forward to seeing Bunty and Babli light up the screen again with their amazing chemistry.

Said to be on the lines of the Hollywood Oscar winner Traffic , Dum Maaro Dum explores the drug mafia in Goa. Abhishek Bachchan plays a narcotics cop in this film. Dum Maro Dum is an edgy, coming of age, cop-caper with Goa playing a full-fledged character and has lot of thriller elements thrown in. The film also marks debut of Telugu superstar Rana Daggubatti in Bollywood.

The film recently made news for the revival of the cult song Dum Maaro Dum from Dev Anand's Hare Rama Hare Krishna , which the legendary actor has objected to. Deepika Padukone will be performing on the song as an item number in a rave party setting for which Goa is much famous.

Deepika says no to smoking!


Deepika Padukone was asked to smoke up before she started shooting for the Dum Maaro Dum song "to get into the mood."

But Dips flatly refused to do so. She felt it wasn't necessary to light up (which she considers a bad and unhealthy habit) to get into the groove. Her logic was that she could do it any which way being an actor. 

Her director Rohan Sippy confirms, "It is true that I had advised her to smoke up but she told me that she just won't do it. We understood her logic and did not push her." 

People are really pushing the buck when it comes to method acting, no?
