This is certainly a unique one. Known for his melodramatic approach to cinema, Dharmesh Darshan has completely revamped his style, ambience and studio-system of working for his latest venture Aap Ki Khatir.
Just how much so is evident from the fact that his entire team, who shoot non stop till mid-March in England are going ga-ga over this re-invented Darshan.
The film's leading lady Priyanka Chopra feels she's in Jane Austen territory. "We shot in a place called Walcot about fifty miles away from London. And it felt like we've been transported to Jane Austen's territory...the quaint cottages, the green fields, the fresh air... I didn't have to be in a gym to exercize. I just have to take cycle down the road or just jog a mile anywhere."
Priyanka had taken her personal trainer along to train for Farhan Akhtar's Don.
While she sighed in ecstacy Dino Morea too had a lot of fun. "I acted fresh. I was in this paradise on earth playing a Cananova who's romancing two pretty sister played by Priyanka and Amisha. What more can I hope for?" he asks.
Interestingly the entire cast is new not only to the director but also to one another. "I've never worked with Dharmesh, neither has Priyanka. She and I were together in Plan. But we had no scenes together. Neither Priyanka nor I have worked with Akshaye Khanna or Amisha Patel. See what I mean by acting fresh?" Dino chuckles.
