Nishikant Kamat to switch genres to romance

Director Nishikant Kamat is known for his action films and dramas but it seems he’s now going to switch genres to romance as he’s all set to direct a love story.

Kamat told TOI, “It’ll be shot entirely in India. Ritesh Shah has written the script and we’ve been toying with the idea for six years”.

Talking about casting, Kamat said, “I want an actor from the younger lot for the male lead. Someone like Varun Dhawan, Ranveer Singh or Sidharth Malhotra. We might opt for a fresh face for the heroine”.

Kamat wrapped up ‘Rocky Handsome’ last week which stars John Abraham. Kamat commented, “He will be seen battling under world dons and the drug mafia in the film. John is a good friend and I have discussed another action drama with him. We have a great story idea but I can sit down to script it only towards the end of next year”.
