Discussion Related to Aamna's Bollywood Career!!! - Page 3

Like most Indian boys, Aaftab Shivdasani loves cricket and also dreamt of being a cricketer. He often participated in cricket matches during his school and college days. But life took a sudden U turn and Aftab was into acting. But his love for the game has not stopped.

The actor in fact looks forward to playing the game when ever he gets a chance to. Recently on the sets of Aloo Chaat Aftab got very excited when he learnt that director Robby Grewal also loved the sport. They decided to play the game on the sets whenever they were free. Hence not a single day went by without a game of cricket on the sets of Aloo Chaat.

Infact the schedules were designed keeping the mandatory breaks in mind so that the unit could indulge in their favorite pastime. Its quite a feat that inspite of all the fun and games the film was shot in a total of 30 days.

Says director Grewal "it was fun playing the game and since Aftab and I both loved the game we decided to play on the sets when free. In fact it was a stress buster at times for us from our hectic schedules."

Robby has earlier directed films like Mera Pehla Pehla Pyar and Samay. He has now turned producer with his next titled Kusar Prasad Ka Bhoot with Paresh Rawal and Randeep Hooda in important roles.

  "ALOO CHAAT is one film which will keep you thoroughly entertained with that constant smile on your face. 'The film is made for a family audience. I can assure that no one from the audience will have a single moment of embarrassment or discomfort when the film is on; it is so clean.'' says Aftab Shivdasani.
  
  
  Aamna Shariff says, "I am playing a Muslim girl who falls in love with a Punjabi boy. The name of my character is also Aamna. My character is that of a simple, straight- forward and a fun loving girl. I totally relate to this character and I am sure every girl can relate to it".
  
  
  Anuj Saxena, CEO of Maverick Production says, "The film has been shot well on time. The film looks good and it is a realistic comedy which audience can watch with their family. The flavour of the film is so that audiences will connect to it instantly and when you come out of the theatre you will come out feeling light"
  
  
  Robby Grewal director of the film says, "Aloo Chaat was conceived as a film with the objective of entertaining the audience, with a liberal dose of fun and laughter, but at the same time leaving a pertinent question regarding discrimination of people on the basis of caste and creed.
  
  
  It's a film set in Delhi with all the trappings of a middle class Punjabi household. I seriously believe Punjabis are the funniest species on the planet, and I have attempted to capture that very essence of Punjabi humour in my film".
  

Mumbai: While the whole world has gone to town linking him with Aamna Sharif, Aftab Shivadasani has chosen to maintain a silence and is not ready to tell us if he is seeing her or not.

"I have never spoken about my personal life and never will. I don't want to speak about her as of now," he says.

Though there were rumours that the duo would use the link-up for the publicity of their just-released film Aloo Chat, it's surprising that Aftab didn't come out with it in the end. "People can say anything they want. It is about the film and I want the focus to be on the film and not on us," he says.

His last few releases like Dus Kahaniyan, De Taali and Money Hai To Honey Hai sank without a trace. Even Aloo Chat isn't doing that well. But Aftab isn't insecure. He sounds upbeat about his next two releases - Acid Factory and Kambakht Ishq. "I don't regret any of my decisions. I am more or less where I want to be," he ends.
