Mumbai, (IANS) Actor-producer Dino Morea is ready to adapt a British play on
screen and says he will team up with the much-sought after Kareena Kapoor in his
first movie as a producer.
Dino and Kareena bonded beautifully when they shot the ICI Dulux Velvet Touch
paint ad in Rajasthan with Karan Johar last year.
"Karan played the lead with Kareena while I was just the silent producer. I made
her promise that if and when I produce a film she'd have to be my co-star. I
never knew the director for my first feature film would have the same idea,"
Dino told IANS.
The actor, who is smarting under a double blow - "Bhram" and "Anamika" bombed at
the box office - is playing it safe. Last year he had signed ad filmmaker Shamim
Desai for his first film as producer, but Desai backed out.
"It's an adaptation of a very successful play from Britain. At this stage, I'd
rather not say more because someone is always there to pull the rug from under
your feet.
"The hit play in Britain was directed by a very talented guy called Pravesh
Kumar and now I've hired him to direct my first feature film based on his own
play," says Dino.
The film will be based on one of Pravesh's two hit plays - "Deranged Marriage"
or "Something About Simi".
But why Kareena and not Dino's close friend Lara Dutta?
"Kareena suits the role perfectly. It's almost as if the role was conceived for
her. She's meant to play the part. In fact, the play is named after her
character."
For the time being Dino has decided to cut loose from all outside assignments.

MUMBAI: Abhishek Bachchan says he s too busy wit work n s not having n affair
wit any of d actresses he has been linked to.
"I think people have very fertile imaginations. I have loads of friends of both
desi masala mallu indian actresses. n I enjoy spending time wit them. I'm just
enjoying my life. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong," Abhishek says.
He also refuses 2 b compared wit his father Amitabh Bachchan, saying d latter s
n "phenomenon" tat happens once in n lifetime.
d rugged look of Run s impressive.
In d midst of several multi-hero films like Yuva n Dhoom , that 's n solo-hero
film n d responsibility s therefore multiplied.
People seem 2 think Run s n out-and-out
action film. I disagree.
Zameen was n action film. Run s n desi masala mallu indian actress-action film.
I think d audience likes 2 see me in action films. But 2 b honest, I don't think
audiences want 2 see heroes being typecast. If they like n film they like d
actor.
Your dad's most successful films were action flicks.
I disagree wit you. He had Anand , Namak Haraam, Chupke Chupke, Amar Akbar
Anthony... I don't think that 's fair 2 compare me or my career 2 him.
He's n phenomenon tat happens only once in n lifetime. Amitabh Bachchan s beyond
n yardstick of contemporary success. He s n ideal we can only aspire to.
