Ankoosh Bhatt’s 3 Dev Is Bollywood’s Most Quirky Casting Coup!
Ankoosh Bhatt’s 3 Dev Is Bollywood’s Most Quirky Casting Coup! Filmmaker Ankoosh Bhatt has landed himself with some of the quirkiest set of people and the crown of this casting coup of his upcoming film 3 Dev totally lands on his head!
Starting off with a gritty thriller Bhindi Bazaar, Ankoosh Bhatt picked up on raving reviews but realized over time that such films only get lauded by critics but to get the numbers up you definitely have to go in for something massy. “You don’t have to make meaningless cinema for that,” instantly clarifies Ankush Bhatt further adding, “You just have to make a decent film with appeals to the senses of the masses.”
And with that mindset he landed himself with 3 Dev, a one of its kind comedy with an ensemble cast comprising the likes of Prosenjit Chatterjee, Raima Sen, Tisca Chopra, Kay Kay Menon, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Ravi Dubey & above all Karan Singh Grover! Phew! That’s a huge list and ask him how he managed to pull off this casting coup, he says, “It wasn’t easy but I guess I got lucky with my script which appealed to all these actors and they graciously agreed to play the parts I had written for them without asking for any change.”
Staying true to the characters and not actors playing it seems to be Ankoosh Bhatt’s mantra, “There was no favoritism which is what worked with the actors and hence they took up the roles that were written for them. Additionally, there are a couple of side actors in the film too but you still won’t see them being wasted in a blink & miss role. Each actor who will come on camera in this film will have a part to play and ultimately it is going to be a satisfying experience for everyone,” says Bhatt.
This one of a kind comedy is all set to release on 1st Jun, 2018 and we can’t wait to see so many actors in one film. 3 Dev is produced by Chintan Rana of R2Phillum productions, presented by Ayub Khan of E4U Enterprises.
