October 4, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Personal setbacks and crises often mean losses worth crores for film producers, especially if the film is shot abroad. But in the case of Anees Bazmis Thank You, where a long schedule in Toronto had to end suddenly because of Bobby Deols father-in-law's illness and death, the loss runs into not just the production on-hand (Thank You) but also Boney Kapoors sequel to No Entry entitled Be Positive.

While Boney has declared his next production would be the sequel to No Entry, Anees shocks by declaring that the script is not even close to being ready.

Says Anees, While Ive an idea for the Hera Pheri sequel which I am working on for producer Feroz Nadiadwala Ive absolutely no idea which way the sequel to No Entry would go. The comedy is the hardest genre to write. And I cant plunge into a funny film until Ive the script ready. Ive just had no time to think about an idea for No Entry Part 2.

With the Thank You schedule going haywire after Bobbys abrupt departure from Toronto, Anees is now organizing a schedule in Mumbai to synchronize with the unfinished schedule in Toronto.

Says Anees, When Bobby had to leave from Toronto we still had one big song to be shot. And some scenes."

It was meant to be a big chorus song featuring Irrfan Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Rimmi Sen, Sunil Shetty and Bobby. Organizing the dates of all these actors would be problematic.

Plus theres the problem of getting the choreographer. One of South Indian cinemas biggest names was hired to do the song.

Says Anees, Raju Sundaram was supposed to do the song. Now I dont know if he still can. Hes busy. I also have to wrap up my schedule before I leave for Bangkok to shoot the second schedule of Ready with Salman Khan.

Sighs Anees, This is the first time Im doing two films together. Setbacks are bound to happen. Chalta Hai. Weve to take it in our stride.

One hopes Boney Kapoor too will Be Positive about Bobby Deols disrupted schedule.
