Apoorva
Lakhia, who is known for his slick thrillers, is gearing up for the release of
his upcoming film ‘Haseena Parkar’, which is based on the life of dreaded don
Dawood Ibrahim’s sister Haseena and Apoorva has an interesting story about how
this project came to be.
In
a candid chat, Lakhia admitted, “I was actually approached to make a film on
Dawood, which I refused as there have been so many films based on him. But the
makers told me that people don’t know much about Dawood’s younger days and this
intrigued me so I agreed to meet his family members to get to know more about
him.”
Apoorva
added that this was when he met Haseena and her story fascinated him a lot.
“Haseena was this innocent girl from a crime family and what she went through
because of her family background, fascinated me a lot and I proposed that we
make a film on her instead. Though she was initially reluctant, we finally
managed to persuade her to share her story with us and the rest is history.”
Directed
by Apoorva Lakhia, Haseena Parkar stars Shraddha Kapoor, Siddhanth Kapoor and
Ankur Bhatia. Produced by Nahid Khan with Swiss Entertainment and co-produced
by Sameer Antulay and Babu Tyagi, the film is set to release on September 22.
