Govinda to star in Vivek Sharma's next

To begin your career with someone like Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan by your side is half the battle won. We are talking about Vivek Sharma who, on the success of his directorial debut Bhoothnath says, “It’s a great feeling to have tasted success in your very first attempt and in addition to that, to be associated with the two top notch superstars of the film fraternity, that itself gives you a high.”

“Bhoothnath will always remain very close to my heart and I will always remember what Amitabhji’s told me don’t go by the words of others instead introspect your work which will help you in the longer run,” says Vivek. So did you pay heed to Big B’s golden advice? “Of course, I feel visual narration and screen staging are some areas where I will have to work on.”

When asked about the response he got from the people in the industry, he says, “I was both surprised and honored, when veterans like Ashutosh Gowarikar, Jaya Bachchan and Aziz Mirza praised my work and efforts.”

Workaholic to the core, Vivek is already engrossed with Vashu Bhagnani’s Kal Kisne Dekhaa in South Africa. To which Vivek says, “Jacky Bhagnani (Vashu’s son) would be launched in Kal Kisne Dekha which is a romantic thriller. The film would also introduce Vaishali Desai in the lead role. In addition, there is a surprise element in the form of Rishi Kapoor who would play a role he has never done before.”

Shedding some light on his future projects Vivek informs, “I am turning producer with a film, which will be presented by Tips films. This film would be a comedy of error with romance in the background and the star cast is yet to be finalized. We will commence shooting within two months. Then for another movie of mine with Ashtavinayak’s, I have signed Govinda. It is a multi-starrer, romantic-comedy which will go on floors by October.”
