According to a latest buzz Danny Denzongpa is all to play a negative role once again as he makes a dashing comeback in Karan Malhotra's film starring Hrithik

After starring in the Suparn Verma directed Acid Factory in 2009, Danny Denzongpa went off the Bollywood radar. Until now. Sources say that the one-time iconic villain is all set to make his comeback with Karan Malhotra's Shuddhi, produced by Karan Johar.

Danny will once again play a negative character in the film that also stars Hrithik Roshan.

Our source says, `Danny is one of the most respectable actors in the industry and had been on a self-imposed exile. He has often said he wants to do films that excite him as an actor. His last film in Bollywood was Acid Factory after which he did Endhiran with Rajnikanth. Post that he had been saying no to each and every film coming his way. `


We heard that Danny loved the script of Karan's film, which will release in Diwali next year.

While Johar remained unavailable for comment, Malhotra denied the news.

"This is a false news. I never approached Danny for this film. I have my wish list ready for the film. We will rope in some strong veteran actor, but we have not approached anybody so far," Malhotra told.

The filmmaker, who debuted as a director with "Agneepath" remake, which saw Rishi Kapoor in a negative role for the first time, hasn't finalised any leading lady either.


"All the reports, which has been flashing, are fake. We didn't cast Kareena Kapoor neither Anushka Sharma. In a months time, I will finalise the leading lady for my film."

To be produced by Karan Johar, "Shuddhi" will go on the floors by November.
