Mahesh Bhatt, the veteran director, producer and screenwriter, has again taken the pen to jot down his next project called `Murder 2'. Bhatt is back to writing after four years. In 2006, he wrote the story of the movie `Woh Lamhe', which was almost like his autobiography.
`Murder 2' will be co-written by Mahesh Bhatt with Shagufta Rafique. The movie is based on the heinous Nithari killings in Noida. So, the movie is not going to be a sequel of the 2004 film `Murder', which had Emraan Hashmi and Mallika Sherawat in the lead roles. Mohit Suri will direct the movie, which will have a new girl opposite Hashmi.
On this, Mahesh Bhatt was quoted saying that `Murder 2' is the next film in the Murder series like they did in the `Raaz' series. He added that Nithari killings gave them an idea to make a movie about these monsters that live in the society with normal people but remain a great threat to others.
Jacqueline Fernandes will step into Mallika’s shoes for Murder 2, a film based on the Nithari killings. Mukesh Bhatt told us, “The only criterion for the lead girl is that she has to be really sensuous.” Guess the hot Sri Lankan actress fits the bill.
Well, we have to Wait & Watch the sexy avataar of 'Jacqueline' in Murder sequel, which is expected to have more bold acts when compared to the Murder of Mallika Sherawat.
