After Anurag Kashyap’s No Smoking and Kukhnoor’s Aashaayein, he has taken up New York, which again like Khan’s Kabul Express is based on terrorism and its various ramifications. Monica Bhattacharjee , spokeswomen for YRF has not confirmed even the title, suggesting it is a tentative one. John Abraham has already become a brand in this country with the latest line of accessories that he has flashed under his name.
Yash Raj films would produce the movie. Now few years ago this would have been a success mantra in itself but these are tough times for Yash Raj flicks and they are going through a series of misses, may be interspersed with an odd hit. Kabir Khan, the guy who is attributed to the semi-success of Kabul, will take direction mantle express. The film also has the self- assured but unassuming Neil Nitin Mukesh. Yash Raj films have been known to keep their venture in complete wraps till the postproduction stages. Keeping in line with the trend, they have not revealed much.
