Farhaan Akhtar ready!
By Behindwoods News Bureau.
January 07, 2008
The success of his last venture Don, a remake of the Amitabh Bachchan starrer, made Farhaan Akhtar take a sabbatical, and a long one at that, notwithstanding the fact that he is a young and rising director. He was last seen directing a short film titled Positive, which formed one of the four short stories on AIDS produced by Mira Nair.

It was a very good film and all those who got to see it at the film festivals were left guessing why this maverick filmmaker hasn’t come out with a full-length feature film after Don.

Now all of his fans can relax, as they will not only get to see this director’s movie but also see him feature in two films in his new avatar as actor. He will be playing the lead in Abhishek Kapoor’s Rock On, in which he has even rendered his voice for a song and later he will feature in his sister Zoya Akhtar’s Luck By Chance, which is all set to start rolling in April. Finally, Farhaan Akhtar has announced his directorial venture Voice from the Sky, which deals with the communication industry during the period when telephone made its advent into the country as a new means of communication. The director said that this story was conceived a long time ago but feels this is the right time to make it, as the audiences are receptive to such themes now and with the growing multiplex culture facilitating good reception for such films. Farhaan can rest assured that his film, if well packaged, will be received well. The response Taare Zameen Par is getting is testimony to this.
