New Delhi: Audiences can get ready for Bollywood villain Don's next chase with director-actor Farhan Akhtar all ready to start shooting the sequel to his hit film `Don' from October this year.
"The next 'Don' is coming up really well. At the moment, we are into heavy pre-production for that. We would start shooting on Oct 1 or Oct 2... that's the scheduled date to start shooting for now. So we are getting there... slowly but surely. (I am) very excited about it. And I am quite certain that I'll have a great time making it and that the audience will surely enjoy it," Farhan told reporters here.
`Don - The Chase Begins' was a remake of 1978 movie `Don' that had megastar Amitabh Bachchan as the gangster. The film received a cult status and is still etched in the minds of many movie buffs. In 2007, Farhan came out with the `Don - The Chase Begins' with Shah Rukh Khan in the title role. Now the director is set to make part two of the movie and says he will retain most of the star cast from the first instalment.
"There will be a lot of people from my previous 'Don' itself. So there will be Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani, Arjun Rampal and Om Puri. There are also new characters added to the script this time but they are currently being cast," he said. Farhan was in the Capital to promote his movie `Karthik Calling Karthik', a thriller releasing on 500 screens. The movie is his third as an actor but Farhan says he will never give up direction.
