For those who have been wondering where Ram Gopal Varma's prized discovery Mohit Ahlawat vanished.The young
gym-toned actor made his debut in Ram Gopal Varma's James in 2005. He had the guts to tell his mentor in his face
that his script for the remake of Sholay would never work.
Mohit paid heavily for his outspokenness. He was banished not only from Ram Gopal Varma's production house but
also from Bollywood.
Last heard he had walked out of Ghajini because he found his role (of the cop) too inconsequential.
Thereafter Mohit seemed to disappear from the face of earth. His phone number has changed and apparently he has
gone back to his family business in Panipat and Delhi.
But now one sees him part of of the ensemble cast in debutant director Akshay Shere's Emotional Aatyachar.
Mohit and Shere go a back a long way, to their days together in Ram Gopal Varma's production house.Even Shere
seems unaware of Mohit's whereabouts. But he does let out that Mohit was in hospital lately.
"I think it is for some intestine or stomach problem. Too much work-out has taken its toll on him, " informs the director.
Ironically the bout of ill health has deprived Mohit of the little bit of attention that his new film would have got him.
Even more ironically director Mohit Shere says Mohit plays, "A businessman who meets some bizarre people."
Sounds like Mohit's own story.
