Himesh to bring the house down

Himesh Reshammiya seems to be taking his career as an actor dead seriously. After releasing one film last year he's almost ready with the new-age version of the 1970s' Rishi Kapoor hit Karz. Now Himesh is all set to do his first full-fledged comedy. The project entitled Gujju Bhai will feature the singer-turned-actor in a comic Gujarati avatar, a goofy do-gooder who gets into all sorts of strange and satirical situations.

Satish Kaushik known for getting the best comic effect out of himself and actors as varied as Govinda, Anil Kapoor and Sridevi, has been roped in to direct Gujju Bhai for the producers TV 18. Satish is reluctant to talk about Himesh's tryst with hilarity. "Right now we're focusing on completing Karzzzz. The producers want to release it in October, and we're working full-throttle ahead to beat the deadline. The original songs that Himesh has created for the new Karzzzz have to be heard to be believed. As for his acting abilities, Himesh is going to surprise his critics," explains Satish and kept mum for anything else!
