Sammir Dattani's destiny with "M"
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 25 2004]
Sammir D. Dattani, the pinup boy from Rajshris' "Uuf Ka Jadoo Mohabbat Hai" was in Hyderabad recently for the promotion of his Kannada film "Mona Lisa". The film has celebrated 100 days in Bangalore. "It's going to be dubbed into Telugu now," said Sammir who loves Hyderabad.
Looks like this year's lucky letter is 'M' (all the successes this year, from "Main Hoon Na" and "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi" have 'M' in common). And it seems to have has struck Rajshris blue-eyed boy too. "Uuf Kya Jadoo Mohabbat Hai" flopped but Sammir clicked. He has been inundated with offers and has decided to do his second Hindi film.
Produced by the US-based Masood Ali, the film will star Sammir as a rock musician and will be shot entirely in Chicago. "I've always wanted to be a singer. In fact, I can play the piano and take regular music lessons," said the affable roller skates champ. One filmmaker looking seriously at Sammir is Subhash Ghai. Sammir recently met the showman who seemed very impressed.
