Actor-director
Mahesh
Manjrekar
is
likely
to
be
seen
in
Sanjay
Gupta's
crime
film,
Shootout
at
Wadala.
Directed
by
Gupta,
the
movie
is
a
sequel
to
2007
film
Shootout
at
Lokhandwala.
The
ensemble
cast
of
the
second
instalment
of
the
film
includes
John
Abraham,
Anil
Kapoor,
Kangna
Ranaut,
Tusshar
Kapoor
and
Ronit
Roy.
Shootout
at
Lokhandwala
will
dramatise
the
first
registered
encounter
by
Mumbai
police,
where
gangster
Manya
Surve
was
shot
dead
in
1982
in
Wadala.
Gupta
has
requested
Mahesh
to
do
a
role
in
the
sequel,
after
the
latter
helped
one
of
the
lead
actors
John
Abraham
to
brush
up
on
his
Marathi.
"I
have
asked
Mahesh
to
choose
a
role
for
himself.
Our
association
goes
back
a
long
way
and
I
wanted
to
continue
it
with
Shootout
at
Wadala.
Also,
he
is
a
superb
actor.
So
he
will
be
part
of
the
film
for
sure," Gupta
said.
In
the
film,
John
plays
the
role
of
gangster
Manya
Surve,
while
Anil
Kapoor
plays
ACP
Isaque
Bagwan.
The
film
goes
on
the
floors
in

and
will
release

this
year.
