Action Jackson's director has been told to reduce the shooting days of his next film by 33 per cent
Having failed to live up to expectations with Action Jackson, choreographer-turned-director Prabhu Dheva finds himself in hot waters. Buzz is, now Dheva will have to complete his next, Singh is Bling starring Akshay Kumar in lesser number of days than he had originally planned.
A couple of days ago, Dheva found himself in a long discussion with Jayantilal Gada and Akshay who are co-producing the film in question.
Akshay and Gada told him in no uncertain terms that he should complete the shooting in 75-80 days, while Dheva argued that he would need no less than 120.
The film's co-producers felt that if they pull off the film in 75 shooting days (which is the normal period taken to shoot most films), they would save at least Rs 9 crore (A single day shoot of Singh is Bling has been evaluated to cost Rs 20 lakh).
A source told SpotboyE.com, "The mixed response to Action Jackson at the ticket windows sealed the discussion in Kumar and Gada's favour. Dheva had no option but to bow down. Moreover, Akshay and Gada were only being sensible. Costly films, more often than not, are not commercially viable (Reportedly, Action Jackson has been made at a budget of Rs 75 crore)."
Added the source, "The film's quality is surely not being compromised. It's just that Dheva has been told to work at a faster pace than his usual."
