Dev
D
actor,
Abhay
Deol
had
a
very
bad
start
this
year
with
his
home
production,
One
By
Two,
which
turned
out
to
be
a
disaster
at
the
Box
Office.
It
is
reported
that
the
star
has
taken
a
loan
for
presenting
this
flick.
Now
buzz
is
such
that
he
may
be
forced
to
mortgage
his
Juhu
flat
to
settle
his
financial
troubles.
Even
a
public
notice
in
this
regard
is
published,
on
his
behalf.
It
proves
that
actors
should
choose
their
films
smartly.
One
By
Two
was
a
rom-com
with
no
difference,
directed
by
Devika
Bhagat
who
co-wrote
Manorama
Six
Feet
Under.
Abhay's
apartment
is
situated
at
Pandurang
Co-operative
Housing
Society
in
Pandurang
Wadi,
Juhu.
His
flat
costs
nothing
more
than
mere
Rs
2-3
crores,
reports
say!
Sources
opine
that
these
financial
troubles
were
caused
only
because
the
utterly
disappointing
performance
of
the
latest
film.
The
film
was
a
pile
of
cliché
stereotypes
of
upper
middle
class
romance
and
also
served
as
a
launch
pad
for
Abhay's
girlfriend,
Preeti
Desai.
Even
the
music
of
this
flick
didn't
earn
any
money
for
its
producers
because
the
producers
had
a
rift
with
the
record
label
over
contract
issues.
The
budget
of
the
film
was
Rs
8
crore
and
Abhay
produced
it
with
five
other
co-producers.
The
actor
said,
giving
credibility
to
the
news,
"I
have
availed
a
loan
for
which
I
had
to
give
papers
for
this
property
as
surety."
Well,
this
is
a
lesson
for
all
Bollywood
young
stars
who
think
that
multiplex
audience
will
always
save
them
watching
their
lukewarm,
cliché
rom-coms.
