Have
you
used
any
real
footage
of
the
shootout
in
your
film?
Yes,
I
have.
But
I
have
not
been
too
successful
with
that.
Once
I
had
even
though
of
incorporating
the
entire
track
that
I
had
received
from
Mithi
Tejpal
and
Madhu
Trehas,
but
when
I
had
a
look
at
the
footage,
it
was
not
of
a
good
quality
that
could
be
used
in
the
film.
We
have
filmed
some
sequences
exactly
the
way
we
saw
them
in
the
track.
These
sequences
look
pretty
real
and
then
we
have
used
small
portions
from
the
track
too.
We
have
heard
that
A.
A.
Khan
has
also
acted
in
the
movie?
Yes,
he
has
also
acted
in
the
movie.
He
has
played
the
character
of
his
senior
Ram
Moorthy.
In
this
film
we
have
changed
the
name
to
Krishna
Moorthy.
Who
is
the
main
character
in
your
multi-starrer
film?
In
this
film,
my
hero
is
Sanjat
Dutt
and
then
there
is
Vivek
Oberoi
followed
by
the
other
characters.
Here
I
am
depicting
the
tussle
between
the
police
and
the
underworld.
So,
I
had
to
use
two
very
strong
characters
for
both
sides
so
that
the
equation
is
balanced.
Why
Sanjay
and
Vivek?
Did
you
have
Vivek's
character
in
'Company'
in
mind?
Who
does
not
want
to
work
with
Sanjay
Dutt?
As
far
as
Vivek
is
concerned,
I
did
have
'Company's
image
in
mind
so
I
wanted
him
to
play
Maya
Dolas.
Tusshar
has
a
different
image
in
the
people's
mind,
so
it
was
a
challenge
to
fit
him
in
the
character
of
Dilip
Buva.
But
I'm
happy
that
he
did
a
god
job.
So
is
it
that
you
have
put
Amitabh
Bachchan
in
a
sub-hero
category?
No,
not
at
all.
He
is
playing
a
lawyer
in
my
film.
If
you
want
to
know
more
about
his
character
then
you
will
either
have
to
wait
for
my
movie
or
do
the
research
yourself.
I
will
not
tell
you
anything
on
my
own.
Diya
Mirza
is
unhappy
with
her
role
being
cut
short...
Sometimes,
after
shooting
the
film,
one
realizes
that
it
has
become
too
long.
So
the
sequences
that
are
not
too
important
for
the
story
are
normally
cut
down.
It
also
happens
that
we
have
to
re-shoot
certain
parts
because
the
film
becomes
too
short.
There
is
a
lot
that
happens
on
the
editing
table
and
Diya
is
aware
of
this.
You
were
also
to
make
a
film
on
Salman
Rushdie's
novel
'Midnight
Children'?
Yes,
I
was
to
make
the
film
along
with
Rushdie's
wife
Padma
Lakshmi,
but
unfortunately,
thing
did
not
work
out
and
the
film
has
been
shelved.
I
will
think
of
it
sometimes
in
the
future.
Your
favorite
subject
is
action.
Will
the
next
film
also
be
based
on
it?
Of
course,
I'm
a
lazy
kind
of
a
person
and
make
one
film
every
two
years.
By
the
way,
I'm
making
the
next
film
with
Sunil
Shetty's
Popcorn
Production.
