It
is common knowledge that director Mohit Suri and Emraan Hashmi
go back a long way.
Mohit
directed Emraan in his debut directorial venture, Zeher, after
which Emraan did a guest appearance for his friend in the
Kunal Khemu film titled, Kalyug.
Mohit even opted for actor Shiney Ahuja in Woh Lamhe but things
didn't exactly work out between the actor and director.
So
Mohit is back to directing his old friend in Awarapan, the
Bhatts' costliest venture to date.
"Mohit and I share a great comfort level and understand
each other only too well. I know what he wants out of me and
he knows how to extract the best out of me. I think that chemistry
between us really shows on screen," remarks Emraan.
With Zeher and Kalyug proving to be money spinners, Emraan
and Mohit are obviously hoping for a hat trick with Awarapan,
their third cinema release together.
With
the musical score of Awarapan fast selling out, the film is
gearing up for a UK release on 29 June 2007.
Meanwhile,
25 years old South Indian superstar Shriya Saran is on Cloud
Nine these days.
Not
only will she be featuring opposite Emraan Hashmi in Awarapan,
she has received raved reviews for her recently released,
South Indian film.
Titled
Shivaji, which also stars Rajnikanth, has already taken the
Tamil and Srilankan audience by storm.
In
Awarapan, Shriya will be seen playing the character of a Muslim
girl who supposedly falls in love with Emraan.
