Only Kapil came to mind for 'KKPK': Abbas-Mustan

Director duo Abbas-Mustan, who are launching comedian-anchor Kapil Sharma as an actor in "Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon", have revealed that only the "Comedy Nights With Kapil" star came to their mind for the film.

"No other actor except Kapil Sharma came to our mind for the script of 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon'. We never go further with the script till we get the correct actor for it. And we have seen the popularity and know that Kapil only can justify the film's character," Abbas-Mustan told media here.

"We made a movie with new face like Shah Rukh Khan and he became a star and now Kapil Sharma in this one ('Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon'). We have just cast them in the movie, how high they go is their luck. It is not in our hands," added Mustan.

The duo also specified that they didn't want any big name for the film.

"We didn't wanted to go with any big actor or any newcomer. Moreover, everyone wanted to see Kapil in movies," said the duo, who had been to his show but didn't intend to do a movie with him then.

Mustan also said that after "Badshah", "Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon" is a comedy film, which the public will "definitely enjoy".

"I see Badshah as my last full comedy movie, which had some thriller element too. In this movie we have comedy and a good story which public will definitely enjoy and say it's an entertaining film. Start to end it's a family entertainer for all age groups," he said.

"Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon" also stars Arbaaz Khan, Manjari Fadnis, Simran Kaur Mundi and Elli Avram. It will be introducing Sai Lokur.

The film is slated to release on September 25.

When Kapil Sharma surprised Abbas-Mustan!

Kapil Sharma, who is all set for his Bollywood debut with Abbas-Mustan's forthcoming comic family entertainer ‘Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon’, surprised the director duo while shooting an emotional scene.

"There was an emotional scene, where Kapil is shown drunk and narrates what happens with him throughout. It was a five-page dialogue scene," said Abbas.

"We asked Kapil to come prepared and we also came prepared. Shoot was scheduled for eight in the night. We had ordered for dinner, late night snacks and morning breakfast for the unit. After the lighting was set and all was done, we started the shot at around 8 pm," he added.

What happened next took the directors and the entire cast and crew by surprise.

"We told Kapil about the markings and camera movements. The shoot began and we were surprised as we had to pack-up by 9.30 pm. Kapil did the five page dialogue in one shot. He asked for one more take but we were confident and didn't go for the second take. It was very well performed by Kapil and we were fully satisfied," said Abbas.

Explaining about the same scene, Kapil told media how he remembered his father who is no more and this pain of missing him at this stage of life helped him do that scene without using glycerin.

‘Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon’ also stars Arbaaz Khan, Manjari Fadnis, Simran Kaur Mundi and Elli Avram. It will be introducing Sai Lokur.

The film is slated to release on September 25.

Actress Elli Avram, who essays a love interest of comedian-actor Kapil Sharma in his debut Bollywood film "Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon", says he made her go through a laugh riot while shooting for the film.

"He made me laugh so many times that I was getting teary and my make-up artist had to come every time to do my touch up! It was good fun and I loved it," Elli told IANS of her experience of shooting with the "Comedy Nights With Kapil" star.

She also recollected an instance when while shooting a scene, she was supposed to be a little upset with his character, but all she could do was only laugh.

"I had to hold that mood (upset mood) in the beginning. Just before the shoot, he suddenly started to make those (funny) faces and said a line in a funny way... and I was like 'Can you please stop it? I'm going to laugh... how will I come into the serious mode?'."

Nevertheless, she finds Kapil to be "very talented, supportive, kind and has done a great job".

She's also all praise for the film's director duo Abbas-Mustan.

"Even our directors Abbas-Mastan sir are so positive, humble and nice people... I was like 'Are we shooting a movie or are we just chilling and having fun?'"

The Sweden-born actress made her debut with "Mickey Virus", and she is especially "happy" that she has worked on her Hindi speaking skills.

"I'm very happy for the fact that I've learnt the (Hindi) language now because and that trained me to be more to be quicker," she said the actress, who has reportedly bagged a role in "Housefull 3".

But choosing not to talk about it, she said: "There is nothing that is confirmed as yet for 'Housefull 3'. So, I don't have clarity... that I can share regarding my next project."
