Dino's new gameplan |

Some time back, Dino Morea had announced plans of starting a film, set in the pre-independence era. Titled JOHN MOHAMMED ALI MASTER, the film was supposed to be directed by ad film maker Shameen Desai. The project is now on the backburner! "That's true! I don't want to elaborate on the reasons, but I am not starting the film," Dino tells me. Please elaborate. "I've started my production house called Clockwork Films. The company has started with ad films and will make feature films subsequently. The first ad to come out of my banner is the one starring Kareena Kapoor and Karan Johar," he divulges. On the acting front, Dino was offered two big projects recently, but the actor refused the first film since the role lacked meat. The second film, Dino says, had him playing second fiddle to a junior actor. "I am ready to wait, instead of jumping at any film offered to me," he says. In the meanwhile, Dino has agreed to do an 'item song' in Jahnu Barua's film, starring Preity Zinta. |

The sultry beauty may not have a role in the second part of the Bhatts' movie 'Raaz'.
There seems to be some confusion over whether Bipasha Basu is doing Raaz 2 or not. Earlier, producer Mukesh Bhatt had stated his intention to sign Bips for the lead role in the movie. But now, reports indicate that the idea has been dropped.
The change in plans is apparently the result of the script by Shagufta Rafique, who found no loose ends in the climax of 'Raaz' to carry the story forward in the sequel. So she has penned an entirely new story which has no correlation to Raaz , which starred Bipasha and Dino Morea.
Consequently, 'Raaz 2' will not be a sequel to 'Raaz'. And the Bhatts are reportedly looking for a new face to play the female lead opposite Emraan Hashmi in the film. Bipasha may eventually not find a place in the film.
'Raaz 2' will be directed by Mohit Suri and not by Vikram Bhatt (who directed 'Raaz'). The film will be a thriller with supernatural elements.
