UTV's Siddharth Roy Kapoor's brother Kunal Roy Kapoor may not have been lucky with the ladies in Delhi Belly. But he sure as
hell seems to be in the mood to make up for lost time. Kapoor who is currently working in a slew of topnotch productions is all set
to direct Pool, a horror film that would have more bikini babes burning up the blue water than any film in recent times.
The film commences in July. And the audition for the best bikini bodies is on at this very moment.
A fleet of bikini-clad women have been seen moving in and out of producer Siddharth Jain's Andheri office every day. Intrigued, one
made inquiries with Jain who laughingly dodged the issue and finally said, "Okay, we're auditioning for a film. But that's all I can
tell you at the moment. "
Further probing revealed the direct involvement of actor Kunal Roy Kapoor in the proceedings.
A source informed, "Kunal is directing a horror thriller called Pool for Sid Jain. It's like one of those Japanese horror films with lots
of girls in swimming clothes screaming blue murder. Sid wants Pool to scare audiences away from swimmingpools just as Steven
Spielberg's Jaws had scared people off the beaches and the oceans. "
Interestingly Kunal Roy Kapoor came into cinema as a director. He directed the little-seen Konkona Sen Sharma oddity titled Shall
We Tell The President and then got sucked into acting. After Delhi Belly he is hugely in demand as an actor. But direction remains
his first love.
Pool is expected to feature 12 new nubile faces with bodies to match.
When asked about his new tryst with directorial destiny Kunal Roy Kapoor admitted, "Yes, I am very excited about this film. I've
managed to juggle my dates to fit in pre-production and the shooting. But it's going to be a packed year for me. "
