After winning hearts and minds in Bollywood and Indian films, Kamal Hassan is now looking forward to take a plunge in Hollywood.
The actor screened his new film Vishwaroopam to Hollywood producer
Barrie M Osborne, of the ‘Lord of the Rings’ fame, and the two are now
planning to collaborate on a project.
‘My friend Barrie Osborne is coming down and we are planning, so
hopefully I’ll be doing something in Hollywood,’ said Kamal Hassan.
Meanwhile the actor-director is gearing up to release his new film
Vishwaroopam, a spy thriller made simultaneously inTamil and Hindi. The
first look is out.
‘The content of the film is such that it demanded a larger audience,
so we made the film in both languages. The basic premise of the film is
to get the audience to theatres, so that the people who have invested in
the film, including me, can rake in the moolah,’ he said.
The film has an unusual star cast comprising Indian-American actress
Pooja Kumar, Tamil actress Andrea Jeremiah and actors Rahul Bose and
Sandeep Jamwal. Hassan himself stars in the lead role.
‘I was not looking for stars in the film, I wanted talent. Also a
person starring in a role should suit it, that goes for me as well. We
chose Pooja after a looking through a number of other actresses. Rahul
prepared for one and a half months for his role, working on his look and
Tamil accent, Iam very pleased with him,’ said Hassan.
