Actor-director Pooja Bhatt is all set to give a new twist to item songs in her next Cabaret, which she plans to shoot in 3D.
“There is so much ‘hoo haa’ about item songs, so it would be fun to redo the item numbers… I also feel that the genre of item number has been over used and abused. I want to show the heartland of India’s cabaret like it’s never been seen. I really want to do a spin on that,” she told IANS.
“I might shoot Cabaret in 3D. Cabaret is a musical where there is a cabaret dancer and a man (Randeep Hooda) who comes from the crime world… These two worlds collide and that’s the kind of the act that we have planned,” she added.
Cabaret, according to Pooja, will go on the floors next year before Jism 3.
“Cabaret is something that I will start shooting first. I feel there needs to be a gap between Jism 2 and Jism 3 – people need to forget the first part to get into the next one,” she said.
Pooja, who will direct the film, denied any similarity between her film and Chandni Bar saying: “Cabaret is going to be a visual treat and it’s going to be spectacular. That is something that people now expect from my movie.”
Her father Mahesh Bhatt and writer Shagufta are working on Cabaret and Pooja informed that “Bhatt saheb is my thinking cap. As long as his thinking cap is on, I am going to shamelessly use that. (IANS)
