After a 'run'away success, Priyan now beats a 'Dhol'

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,January 12 2007]

Priyadarshan has enjoyed yet another runaway success in the form of 'Bhagam Bhag' which has reached the HIT mark within 2 weeks of its release. And now he has all the reasons to smile, sing, dance and beat the 'dhol'....well, literally!

He is now gearing up to finish the shoot of his next film 'Dhol' which is yet another comic fare from the director who has been delivering back to back hits at the box office.

This time around he doesn't have a Akshay Kumar or a Paresh Rawal as his trump card. Instead, 'Dhol' stars young blood like Sharman Joshi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Khemu and Tanushree Datta who are supported by Om Puri and now-regular-with-Priyan Rajpal Yadav. This is not all as the film also features Arbaaz Khan [another regular] and Payal Rohatgi in important roles.

With music by Pritam (who has also composed for Priyan in 'Garam Masala' and 'Bhagam Bhag'), this film by Percept Picture Company is aiming for a June release.
