After directing Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback vehicle Jazbaa, director Sanjay Gupta is all set to direct Abhishek Bachchan in his next gritty gangster drama Ek Tha Gangster, which was earlier titled Mumbai Saga.
Reportedly, the film was earlier said to be starring John Abraham and Huma Qureshi in the lead but now things seem to have changed.
According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Gupta's racy thriller is based on S. Hussain Zaidi's 2014 bestseller, Byculla to Bangkok, a sequel to his 2012 novel, Dongri to Dubai.
The film will trace how youngsters were recruited and went on to become local goon Arun Gawli, wheelchairbound Ashwin Naik, a former engineer and Chhota Rajan, former deputy and friend-turned-foe of Dawood Ibrahim, who was arrested in Bali last week.
Source close to the film informed Mirror, "The film won't focus on Chhota Rajan, but will follow the colourful lives of the cops and politicians. There will be songs and dances as well."
However, official announcement is yet to happen!
