‘Sona will surprise people with her action’

Director Abhinay Deo (below) believes that Sonakshi Sinha (left), the leading lady of his upcoming film, will surprise everyone with her action stunts.

“In this film you will see the difference. Here, Sonakshi is shoulder to shoulder with John Abraham. People would be surprised looking at her. We have started shooting the action part with her. Almost 50% of the action is done,” Abhinay says about his film which is a sequel to Force (2011).

The Delhi Belly director is working on some hitherto unseen action sequences in the film.

“With the film, I am trying to create action sequences that people haven’t seen yet. I hope I can give something new. The shoot is going amazing. John has had an injury so we had stopped shooting for some time,” he adds. “About 70% of the film is done, only 30% is left. We have not thought of the release date yet,” he adds.

Besides having spectacular action, the film will see Mardaani fame actor Tahir Raj Bhasin replacing Vidyut Jammwal, who played the negative role in Force.

“This time the villain is (being played by) Tahir Raj Bhasin from Mardaani. He is an absolutely amazing actor... He will surprise the audience. A villain need not be well-built and huge. He can surprise with his thinking... using brains,” he said.

Abhinay is directing a film after a gap of four years and he believes in taking time and giving his best.

“I always take time for my projects. After Delhi Belly I took two years for my TV show. I dedicated my time for the show as I want to do something different and path-breaking,” he said. Besides the film, Abhinay is working on his TV show.
