Despite the bouquets and awards he won for his debut film Taare Zameen Par, it is not exactly being a rosy path for creative director of the film, Amole Gupte. It is learnt from industry sources that he is now facing problems finding a big star for his next film Sapno Ko Ginte Ginte.
Sources reveal, “Despite a great showcase of his talent in Aamir Khan’s TZP, Amole is finding it extremely tough to convince a big A list star to do his film. The film like his earlier film also centers around a child and sees his directorial debut. One can recollect Amole was earlier scheduled to direct TZP but was later replaced by producer Aamir Khan when he decided to act and direct the film himself. Many have seen this as the precursor of the fallout between Aamir and him.”
In this regard, Amole has been heard stating that he is waiting for a big star to agree to do his film and unless that happens, he cannot go ahead with my project. Meanwhile, Amole shall soon be seen making his acting debut in Vishal Bharadwaj’s Kaminey in a villain’s role. -Sampurn Media
