Director-turned-actor
Farhan
Akhtar
who
is
gearing
up
for
the
release
of
his
upcoming
film
Toofaan,
spoke
about
staying
away
from
donning
the
hat
of
director
for
a
long
time
and
if
he's
planning
to
make
Don
3
and
Dil
Chahta
Hai
2.
While
speaking
to
Pinkvilla,
Farhan
denied
working
on
any
script
related
to
Dil
Chahta
Hai
2
or
Don
3
and
said,
"No,
not
currently.
Dil
Chahta
Hai
2
very
rarely
do
I
get
asked
about,
Don
3
I
am
constantly
asked
about.
But
at
the
moment,
no.
Right
now
I
have
a
certain
focus
on
the
stuff
that
I
am
intending
to
do,
and
of
course
time
will
come
for
me
to
talk
about
it
more
openly.
But
they
don't
feature."
When
asked
if
he's
planning
to
direct
films
anytime
soon,
he
said
that
he
is
willing
to
direct
films
again.
"You
never
know,
very
soon.
Maybe
the
next
time
we
speak
we
might
be
speaking
about
something
related
to
that.
I
am
very
touched
by
the
fact
that
you
appreciate
my
work
as
a
director,
and
I
feel
I
do
owe
that
side
of
my
work
and
my
career
again
to
people
as
well.
I
do
look
forward
to
directing,
and
hopefully
we
will
chat
about
that
soon," asserted
Farhan.
Coming
back
to
his
forthcoming
release,
Toofaan
is
helmed
by
Rakeysh
Omprakash
Mehra
and
the
film
also
casts
Mrunal
Thakur
and
Paresh
Rawal
in
key
roles.
Recently,
the
trailer
of
the
film
was
unveiled
and
it
received
mixed
response
from
netizens.
While
many
lauded
Akhtar
for
transforming
himself
into
a
beast
for
his
character
in
the
film,
others
criticised
the
trailer
because
of
its
uncanny
resemblance
to
Salman
Khan's
film
Sultan,
which
was
based
on
the
rise
and
fall
of
a
wrestler.
