Dostana pair is back?

Since the fate of Dostana's second edition is still shaky, the lead pair Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham has decided to stop waiting for it and move on.

If all goes well they will come together in the sequel of Kaante along with Arjun Rampal and Bobby Deol.

Serious male bonding
A source reveals, "Abhishek and John's great chemistry in Dostana earned them a lot of fans. Both actors are very fond of each other.

They were looking forward to work again in the second edition of the film and consequently didn't sign any other movies. But since Dostana 2 isn't probably happening, they have decided to stop waiting for it.

They always wanted to do another franchise and Kaante 2 fitted the bill perfectly. They have heard the script and given their consent but the official announcement is yet to be made."

Hollywood connection
The source adds, "The film is directed by a Hollywood director of Mask and The Scorpion King, Chuck Russel and will be shot in South Africa."

Producer Shabbir Boxwala informs, "The film is in a very raw stage. We are planning to put it together. According to paper work Raju Patel holds the rights. Since he is no more, I am planning to make the sequel with his younger brother Uru patel."

About casting he says, "We have not approached Abhishek and John. Arjun and Bobby are my dear friends, so I had a casual chat with them. But we haven't approached anyone officially."

He confirms about the Hollywood director. "Russel was a dear friend of Raju Patel and was always interested in making a Bollywood film. We are in talks with him. Since he is a big name we will surely have a fancy star cast in the film."
