Bhatt camp ready for Jism 2
(NSI News Source Info) December 22, 2008: Five years after Bipasha Basu and John Abraham scorched the screen in Jism, Shagufta Rafique, screenwriter for the much-hyped sequel to the film, says part two will be about infidelity and will launch three new faces with great bodies.
"Since Jism was all about the human body and keeping up with the tradition of Vishesh Films' launching new talent, we'll take a completely new and absolutely raw cast for Jism 2.
We'll launch three new faces and three great bodies in three newcomers in the film," said Rafique.Released in 2003, Jism was an unexpected box office success and the launch vehicle of Bollywood heartthrob John.
The film gave a boost to John and Bipasha's careers and both got tagged as sex symbols. While the first was written by Mahesh Bhatt, Jism 2 is being written by Rafique, who holds to her credit films like Woh Lamhe, Awarapan and box office dud Dhokha.
Asked about the plot of Jism 2, she said: "Like the previous Jism, part two will concentrate on the issue of infidelity and it will be a murder mystery. I have already started working on the film and Pooja (Bhatt) will be directing it."
Loosely based on Lawrence Kasdan's Body Heat (1981), Jism was directed by Amit Saxena and also starred Gulshan Grover, Vinay Pathak and Ranvir Shorey.
Rafique added that Pooja Bhatt and Sujit Kumar, who produced Jism, would soon be starting a Jism franchise. "The franchise will be a series of erotic and passionate films, but with different stories. We in fact have 10 scripts ready on the same with us."
Jism was a big success as a brand. Pooja opened a Pandora's box with the film in the industry. Soon everyone started making films on the body. But the film's got to do with passion, love and lust and to live up with its brand, we'll come out with a Jism franchise altogether," Rafique said.
Apart from Jism 2, she has also penned the scripts for upcoming films like Raaz - The Mystery Continues, Sincity and Jashnn. She is also set to wield the megaphone for Cabaret, which she has scripted.
