All I can say is the action film that I will be making will be of Hollywood stature," he said.

It will be shot in 3D. I am approaching people...so let's see if somebody is ready to put in that much money...lets see how it shapes up.

  • "It was fantastic working with Prabhu Deva and Ganesh Acharya. There were no creative inputs from them. They both are actors, directors and choreographers and they knew what I wanted. They gave me full freedom," Remo said.
  • "I am a big fan of Raju Hirani. I love the way he puts his thoughts and makes the film entertaining and there is a message in each of his movie. That way I also want to do. I have tried to do that in ABCD," he added.
