Sunny Deol and director Anil Sharma, who've given hits like Gadar-Ek Prem Katha, The Hero - Love Story of a Spy and Apne, are actually working together in Singh Sahab The Great.
Director Anil Sharma, whose last film was Salman Khan-starrer Veer in 2010, may be very happy to come again to direction. "IT'S always exciting to come back to direction. For me it's always as though I'M starting my first film. I THINK as though I'M GOING right into a new class and preparing myself for a brand new exam," he says.
When quizzed on casting Sunny Deol within the film, Anil says, "I chose Sunny as it is the most important character and that i feel that Sunny is essentially the most powerful action hero India has produced in 100 years."
Speaking in regards to the film, Anil says, "Singh Sahab The Great is the tale of a District Collector, who desires to eradicate poverty and corruption. He's an overly humourous and entertaining character. There's also numerous action within the film. Sunny may be playing a sardar within the film. The script is written by Shaktiman, who wrote Gadar."
"We are still within the technique of finalizing the leading lady but now we have two girls in mind. Till we have now finalized Sunny Deol and Prakash Raj, who will play a negative role within the film," Anil added.
The first song of the film consists by Anu Malik and has already been recorded. Singh Sahab The Great will go on floors by October-November and can be shot in Mumbai and at the borders of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.
Speaking about his other film starring the Deol trio Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby, Anil says, "I'M presupposed to make Masters with the 3 Deols. We can start work on that film when I am done with Singh Sahab The Great for the reason that Deols are first engaged on Yamla Pagla Deewana sequel but we will be able to start the shooting of Masters sometime next year."
