Abhay
Deol, who turns producer with his upcoming film One by Two has started
his production house with a philosophy in mind. Going forward, the actor
turned producer will be seen giving a chance and launching new writers,
directors and actors.
Abhay Deol has himself
walked on a lesser taken route in his acting career by choosing to work
with a lot of new comer director in the industry like Imtiaz Ali in
Socha na Tha, Navdeep Singh in Manorama Six Feet under, Reema Kagti in
Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd. and other debut directors like Shivam Nair.
The actor feels lucky
that he has found good talent for himself each time when he was into
acting. Now Abhay Deol wants to get new writer, director, actor talent
and give them a new platform to showcase their work.
He is keen on creating
new age cinema which is neither on the commercial side nor arty. It is
something that he calls ‘middle of the road’ cinema. Abhay Deol has
always gone by his gut feeling for acting and he wants to continue this
with his production house.
Even in One By Two,
Abhay Deol was not supposed to be a part of the cast but the team
strongly felt that he fits in the lead actor character perfectly.
Abhay Deol says, "I would
really like my production house to be a creative hub where new talent
gets launched. We would love to work with as many new writers, directors
and actors."
