Skipper Dhoni to make his Bollywood debut
Now it is the turn of Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni to make his debut in Bollywood. Dhoni is slated to feature in ‘Hook Ya Crook’, a film based on cricket. Heartthrob John Abraham, who had earlier worked in a football-based ‘Goal’ that did considerable business in the box office, will also be seen in the flick. According to a report published in hotklix.com, the climax of the film is expected to be a huge hit, just like the cricket match in Ashutosh Gowariker’s ‘Lagaan’.
“Dhoni, who has a full-fledged role, is being brought on board to share the field and cinema space with the rest of the cast and also to help his colleagues give a believable spin to the game,” the source said.
David Dhawan, the director of the film said, “Cricket does play a very important part in my film. This would be my most uncharacteristic film, very different from the comedies I am associated with. John Abraham and Uday Chopra will come together again after ‘Dhoom’. And Aditya Pancholi has a very important role. The audience will love him.” Here’s hoping Dhoni all the luck for his much awaited debut!
