No Meezan Jaffery Yet In Priyadarshan's Next, Director Clarifies; Adds, 'I Do Think He Is Talented'
It seems the publicity machinery continues to churn nonstop even when there is no fodder for furtherance. This week one woke up to the report that Meezan Jaffrey who played the romantic lead in Priyadarshan’s underwhelming Hungama 2 which was poorly received by critics, is being cast by the director in another film, so soon after their first collaboration.

However, Priyan clears the air stating there is no casting for his next yet. “In January I am starting my boxing film with Mohanlal in Malayalam , which I told you about earlier. Before that I may do a Hindi film, a thriller , if the script is ready.”

As for casting Meezan in the thriller Priyan says, “Nothing is decided yet. But I do think he’s talented and will work with him in the future.”


Meezan made his Bollywood debut with Sanjay Leela Bhansali production titled Malaal alongside Shermin Segal. The film had received a lukewarm response at the theatres and amongst critics. Hungama 2 by Priyadarshan was his second outing at the box-office. 


Talking about his person life, well the actor is often in news for his bond with Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter, Navya Naveli Nanda. The two are rumoured to be dating.


Coming to Priyadarshan casting him for his next, let's hope he grabs the opportunity.
