"If I may say so, then yes, 'Jackpot' is a conscious effort to make a commercial film and to get into that zone. I have not made a film like this before. It is different from my previous films," Gustad told IANS.
It is after a decade that the filmmaker is back in business. He says he was busy with his family all this while.
"I was busy with my personal life, my family, and I was also writing scripts. I think this is the right time for me (to be back)," he said.
"Jackpot" features Naseerudin Shah, Sachiin Joshi and Indian-Canadian adult film star Sunny Leone.
Gustad is "grateful" to Naseeruddin for agreeing to be a part of the project, and he is happy that "Sachiin and Sunny have done a wonderful job in the film".
