FIRST LOOK For Imran starrer TUM MILE

Add to Jamespot

Emran Hashmi and Soha Ali Khan find love whilst trapped in the 2006 Mumbai flood deluge in Mahesh Bhatt’s next offering Tum Mile.

Directed by Kunal Deshmukh of Jannat fame, the film boasts of some gripping flood sequences, trademark soulful Bhatt music but sadly Emran doesn’t get to pucker up in this flick. Yes, its true Soha refused to kiss the serial kisser himself and news were rife that Immi didn’t take it too well.

Rest assured, insiders can’t stop raving about the canvas of the film since the floods on the streets of Mumbai have been fantastically re-created.

Emran Hashmi confirmed to the press, ‘You should have been on the sets to believe it, Water level there was scary enough to actually drown people. Kunal (Deshmukh) wanted the situation to be an exact replica of the horrific flood situation that the city faced that fateful night. It was difficult to even imagine how commuters would have struggled with no support whatsoever.’

Tum Mile however isn’t the first film to be made on the deluge, a small budget film called 26th July at Barista starring newbies Kabier Sawhney and Simran Vaid was also made on the same issue. But the floods washed away the memories of the film and here's hoping Tum Mile doesn’t suffer the same fate too.

Sooraj Barjatya can now consider Emraam Hashmi for his next film. The reason? The actor has now got the requisite experience to act in one of his films. Emraan Hashmi is getting set for his own shaadi and is being roped into all the necessary activities by his friends and family. Of course, we don’t know if he is pulling his air out as yet. But he is definitely getting all the hands on experience of a marriage function and its preliminaries. Now will sooraj barjatya please oblige?

Mumbai, June 24 (IANS) Emraan Hashmi's "Tum Mile" is stuck not because of date problems, but due to the delayed rains here. Ironically, the romantic movie is about a couple stuck in the 2005 Mumbai deluge and the makers are waiting for the skies to open up."None of us have a date excuse this time around. We are willing to shoot for the film but just can't do that," joked Emraan, "Thankfully, this time around the culprit is none other than the rain god himself."Producer Mukesh Bhatt doesn't have much to worry though as director Kunal Deshmukh has almost completed the entire film in a specially designed set that recreates the flood scene of July 26, 2005. The film is gearing up for its final copy.But then we don't want to rush up things. We want the final copy to look exactly like a final copy. And for that, these shots (real rain shots) form an integral part. While a couple of them would require both me and Soha (Ali Khan) being trapped in rain, a few only need the Mumbai city in background," Emraan told IANS.When a huge portion of the film has already been shot on the sets, why not shoot the aforementioned scenes in artificial rains?"Kunal (Deshmukh) is very particular about these scenes especially and is quite positive that actual rains will only elevate the proceedings. Since these are meant to be outdoor shots, it would look fake if we shoot with artificial rain," said Emraan."In fact, we were not anticipating such a situation because generally the rains do arrive in Mumbai around this time. We are sitting ready with our cast, crew and equipment. It's just a matter of a few days and we are willing to wait," he added."Tum Mile" was originally slated for release in June-July to coincide with the Mumbai floods anniversary. However, due to the producers' strike, the release timelines have now shifted to Sep 25."Whatever happens indeed happens for good. Since there are so many releases waiting in queue, we have to anywaywait for a while before we hit the screens. 'Jashn' is also releasing this July."Meanwhile, we continue to pray and hope that we can finish our job, complete the film and be ready for September release," said Emraan.Starring Soha Ali Khan in female lead, "Tum Mile" has music by Pritam.
