Indra Kumar has no plans to take Masti franchise ahead
Filmmaker Indra Kumar, who is known for directing films like ”Beta”, ”Masti”, ”Ishq”, ”Dil”, ”Dhamaal” and many more said that he is done with his adult comedy franchise “Masti” and has no plans to take it forward. The director said his decision stems from the fact that the third part of the franchise, “Great Grand Masti”, was leaked online weeks before it was set to hit the theatres and he had to suffer a huge loss because of it.
“I am done with ‘Masti’ franchise mainly because of the leak . I am put off by adult comedy and ‘Masti’ zone. I don’t feel like doing it. After making romantic-drama films, Kumar shifted gears and made an adult comedy “Masti” in 2004 about three married men Vivek Oberoi, Riteish Deshmukh and Aftab Shivdasani indulging in extra martial affairs but things go awry for them when they become prime suspect of a murder.
The film, which also featured Ajay Devgn and Lara Dutta, was a huge hit and spawned two more films “Grand Masti” and “Great Grand Masti”.Talking about the failure of the third part, Kumar said, “We had released it half-heartedly as we knew it will be a flop because it was already leaked online.”
Kumar is currently awaiting the release of his next big multi-starrer film, “Total Dhamaal”, that will hit the cinema houses on February 22. “I have 17 subjects with me, I don’t know which one we will do first. Everything is different from one another,” Kumar said about his upcoming films.
