Suneel Darshan, who has shot in the country for a record six films, is directing the film.
Bobby Deol, however, preferred to talk about family film "Apne". His eyes lit up and he broke from his normal soft-spoken speech into passionate emotional tones when discussing "Apne", in which he will be seen together for the first time with his father Dharmendra.
"'Apne' is about children not understanding their father's point of view, arguing that they want to live a different kind of 1ife to that which he tries to raise them with. A father has dreams which he could not fulfil and he wants to see them fulfilled through his son's eyes, so it's basically about that," Bobby told.
The film also has Bobby's elder brother Sunny Deol, with whom he shared screen space for the first time in their home production "Dillagi". The actor was at a loss for words when asked about Sunny.
He said: "I'm a very family-oriented man and I get very emotional when I am far away from home. I miss home because I miss my family. My brother is one of the nicest people in my life. I'll do anything for him and he'll do anything for me."
Surprisingly, Bobby did not want to talk much about his success or otherwise in the film industry.
"My whole family is like that - we do not believe in talking about ourselves."
In his forthcoming short film "Nanhe Jaisalmer", Bobby agreed to play himself because it has a "story with a moral", but that does not mean that he will only act in such movies.
"A lot of people will say they want to make a film with a moral, but half the time they just say it, they don't really mean it, but the director of this film really meant what he was saying and I really believe in him."
After "Shakalaka Boom Boom", Bobby will start working in Shaad Ali's "Jhoom Baraabar Jhoom" with Abhishek Bachchan, Preity Zinta and Lara Dutta.
"There is another director called Imtiaz Ali, who directed my cousin's first film, 'Socha Na Tha', and I'm dying to work with him."
