Some
time
back,
Dino
Morea
had
announced
plans
of
starting
a
film,
set
in
the
pre-independence
era.
Titled
John
Mohammed
Ali
Master,
the
film
was
supposed
to
be
directed
by
ad
film
maker
Shameen
Desai.
The
project
is
now
on
the
backburner!
“That"s
true!
I
don"t
want
to
elaborate
on
the
reasons,
but
I
am
not
starting
the
film," Dino
tells
me.
Please
elaborate.
“I"ve
started
my
production
house
called
Clockwork
Films.
The
company
has
started
with
ad
films
and
will
make
feature
films
subsequently.
The
first
ad
to
come
out
of
my
banner
is
the
one
starring
Kareena
Kapoor
and
Karan
Johar,"
he
divulges.
On
the
acting
front,
Dino
was
offered
two
big
projects
recently,
but
the
actor
refused
the
first
film
since
the
role
lacked
meat.
The
second
film,
Dino
says,
had
him
playing
second
fiddle
to
a
junior
actor.
“I
am
ready
to
wait,
instead
of
jumping
at
any
film
offered
to
me," he
says.
In
the
meanwhile,
Dino
has
agreed
to
do
an
'item
song"
in
Jahnu
Barua"s
film,
starring
Preity
Zinta.
