Director Rohit Jugraj is bucking the trend of male oriented movies with his venture about three women. Its all for you girls, and you guys better watch out, he seems to say. In a not so common endeavour in Bollywood, now a film will be focused primarily on women and the ties that bond them. Rohit, who earlier made Superstar, is working on a story based on friendship between women.
“I’ve always been curious about how a woman’s mind works,” shares Rohit adding that, “women work together, laugh and cry together, sharing the intimate secrets of their lives and bitching about them later. I have tried to understand the working of a woman’s mind. ” The movie won’t be a chick flick like Desparate Housewives, he maintains. “I’m making a commercial film which the whole family can watch together,” he claims.
The movie being produced by Abbas Mastan, is a modern take on women, and is a biter sweet story of three girls and the bond they share. It however does not revolve around their love lives entirely. These are career oriented women, who like to have fun as well. So, the film will have drunken driving and pub scenes as well. Genelia D’Souza and Prachi Desai are two of the friends and Rohit is looking for a new face to complete the cast.
But Rohit encountered a problem as not many male actors are willing to appear merely as the girls’ love interest. “The guys have important roles as well. It’s just that instead of guys in the lead, this film has 3 women protagonists,” claims Rohit. Considering it’s a first of a kind movie, there is a certain amount of risk invloved, but Rohit is not worried. Besides having outstanding music, this film has beautiful locales, and also has an important message. “I hope the audience will accept it,” says Rohit.
