After
the
smashing
success
of
Shootout
At
Lokhandwala,
director
Apoorva
Lakhia
is
geared
up
to
start
his
next
film,
titled
Mission
Istanbul.
To
start
with,
he
has
roped
in
a
huge
star
cast
for
this
film
as
well:
Abhishek
Bachchan,
Bobby
Deol,
Vivek
Oberoi,
Tusshar
and
television
actor
Shabbir
Ahluwalia
[he
made
his
big
screen
debut
in
Shootout
At
Lokhandwala].
One
more
lead
man
is
to
be
finalized.
While
Abhishek,
Bobby
and
Vivek
play
'good
guys',
Tusshar,
Shabbir
and
one
more
actor
are
the
'bad
boys'.
Two
leading
ladies
are
under
finalization.
Although
Lakhia
is
tightlipped
about
the
cast,
it's
reliably
learnt
that
the
film
is
based
on
terrorism
and
will
be
shot
in
Afghanistan,
Srinagar,
Mumbai
and
Istanbul.
If
shooting
in
Afghanistan
isn't
possible
for
some
reason,
a
massive
set
replicating
Afghanistan
will
be
built
in
Jaisalmer
to
can
those
portions.
Shooting
for
this
multi-starrer
starts
from
1st
October.
Suniel
Shetty's
Popcorn
and
Ekta
Kapoor's
Balaji
will
produce
this
film.
