After doing oodles of gossiping and housekeeping in Sony Entertainment Television’s show Big Boss, actor-turned-director Deepak Tijori has now chosen to go behind the lens again. Producer Sanjay Gupta has signed him to direct a comedy film.
Tijori signed the deal with White Feather Productions, which is the production company owned by Sanjay Gupta and Sanjay Dutt, on Monday. The incident took place when Apoorva Lakhia was directing Sanjay Dutt and Neha Dhupia on location in Khar for the film Shootout At Lokhandwala. Just then, Deepak Tijori walked in to receive his official signing amount from his friend Sanjay Dutt. Gupta made the offer to him there and then, thus he was welcomed into the family of White Feather Films. Tijori is extremely happy to be a part of this family. He said that the moments of the film "Sadak" just flashed before his eyes when he received the cheque from Sanju. He went on to say that Gupta is our Subhash Ghai. Both are the coolest producers, where they facilitate their director with works. Gupta also said that he was proud to have Deepak on board.
Reportedly, the movie talks about a group of youngsters before they start assuming responsibilities in life. It is a light comedy that can be enjoyed with the whole family. However, the director says that the movie is about five guys who go out on a road-trip to get laid! If this wasn’t all, the producer claims that the movie has been titled Hamari Maange Puri Karo, while Deepak says that the name is Hum Honge Kaamyaab!
Deepak Tijori has also begun work on another project with Baba Films, which will be starring Dino Morea and Jimmy Shergill. Tijori is also speculated to make a film which will star his housemate from Big Boss times, Aryan Vaid.
