David strikes again

April - 17 - 2008

After an eight-month sabbatical, the irrepressible David Dhawan, who churned out hits like Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and Biwi No 1,  and super cracker Partner is back in the swing of things and will direct two films.

“The layoff has done me good. I needed the break from direction! It’s not as if I was sitting idle at home. I was a judge on a dance show (Nach Baliye). That I enjoyed thoroughly. I was finalising the scripts for my next two films and spending time with my family,” said Dhawan.

Dhawan is teaming up with Govinda for producer Vashu Bhagnani’s next film. The duo has given successful films like Hero No 1, Coolie No 1 and last year’s hit movie Partner, which also starred the director’s another favourite actor, Salman Khan.

“The first would be for my friend Vashu Bhagnani with my dear friend Govinda in the lead. It’ll be an out-and-out David-Govinda dhamaka, the kind that audiences will expect from us,” said Dhawan.

In Bhagnani’s untitled film, Dhawan is repeating the Govinda-Lara Dutta pair after Ravi Chopra’s Pappu Pass Ho Gaya. The film will also star Riteish Deshmukh.

While the Bhagnani project takes him into familiar territory, Dhawan has decided on a completely new team for Hook Ya Crook. Dhawan’s son Rohit is also ready to turn director this year.
