Arshad makes changes in Dedh Ishqiya script

22 Jun 2012

Arshad Warsi, whose performance as the raunchy rogue Razzak Hussain aka Babban in Ishqiya (2010) won him critical acclaim, has asked for a meatier role in Ishqiya sequel.

Arshad who is paired opposite Kangna Ranaut in the sequel titled Dedh Ishqiya, was not too happy with his role in the sequel. He felt that it wasn't big enough and voiced his displeasure to director Abhishek Chaubey. Abhishek gave in to Arshad's demands and is currently reworking on the script.

Dedh Ishqiya also marks the comeback of Madhuri Dixit, five years after Aaja Nachle. Madhuri will play the role of Shahi Begum and is paired opposite Naseeruddin Shah in the film.

Produced by Vishal Bhardwaj, Dedh Ishqiya will go on floors in September this year.
