Nagesh Kukunoor took the audience by an in swing in his last film Iqbal. People may feel that things have become easy for the director. Here comes the googly. He is very disappointed with his experience with Mukta Arts. Hence he has decided not to be with them for his next venture. He is now making his next film tentatively titled Aashayein with Sahara Motion Pictures. The film can loosely be called an emotional story of human beings.
Nagesh decided to go this extreme as he found himself sidelined under Subhash Ghai who was busy with the other films of the production house Apna Sapna Money Money, Shaadi Se Pehle, and so on. Nagesh expected their next film to start as soon as Iqbal released. But that did not happen instead he felt that his project was not being attended to.
So he decided to ask for sahara from Sahara Motion Pictures. Nagesh may have changed the production house but not the lead. He has once again cast Shreyas Talpade his lead in Iqbal for this venture too. He has kept the promise he made to Shreyas.
The film this time is a woman centric. It revolves around the lives of two friends and their wives. Vidya Balan was approached to play the lead but that could not work out due to the actress' date problems.
