David Dhawan is all set to don his directorial hat again with UTV Motion Pictures' 'Hook Ya Crook', which goes on floors next month.

Dhawan, whose last film 'Partner' did good business at the box office in 2007, will begin shooting for the film from January 2009, UTV Motion Pictures said. Written by Rensil D'Silva, the award-winning writer of 'Rang De Basanti', 'Hook Ya Crook' stars John Abraham in the lead.

Reportedly, Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni is also playing a role in the film. However, sources in UTV Motion Pictures said nothing has been finalised so far. The female lead is likely to be Genelia D'Souza, sources said.

This is the first time that the ace comedy director will be teaming up with John for a complete entertainer. Alpana Mishra, COO production, UTV Motion Pictures said that the company has been extremely eager to associate with David Dhawan and 'Hook Ya Crook' was just the perfect platform to seal this relationship.

UTV Motion Pictures has also shared a commendable relationship with John Abraham in the past with 'Hook Ya Crook' being John's second film after "Goal", she said.

"We are all gearing up to hit the floor by January ten. Our first schedule is in Mumbai and later in Hyderabad, where we have just started building a mammoth set. It's a film that will keep the audience hooked from word go," Mishra said.

Meanwhile, director David Dhawan said, "I am very excited about the project. It is a very unique film and a very challenging too. The team on the film has worked very hard all through the year to make it happen. It will be a great way for me to start the New Year."
