Amitabh Bachchan and Anil Kapoor get new looks for Aankhen2
Aankhen 2 starring Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Arshad Warsi, Vidyut Jammwal and Regina Cassandra will go on the floors in February. The first schedule will be in Mumbai. However, it’s the second schedule that will see all the fun. The filmmakers plan to shoot in South Africa and Europe. Producer Gaurang Doshi who’s just back from a recce in South Africa seems pretty excited about his venture. He said they plan to shoot at the famous European Palace in Johannesburg. They wanted a grand casino where they could shoot the heist scenes in the movie. No better place than this. Also it’s the first time anyone has been given permission to shoot there. “It wasn’t easy. We have permission to shoot there daily from 9am to 6 pm,” he says. Besides the heist, what’s different about the film is look of the star cast. Anil Kapoor who plays the antagonist and the owner of the casino will don a vintage Italian. While Amitabh Bachchan will get the angry young image once again but to suit his age this time. He will also get a completely new hairdo. “His character is shown coming out of the jail after 13 years so his look required being radically different from the original,” says the producer. They have roped in designer Asa Kazingme to style the movie. Now that should be fun.
