...in Goa for a PNC flick titled Accident
Soha Ali Khan and Shiney Ahuja were spotted shooting together in Goa reccently.
Strangely no one remembered any announcement of any film featuring the pair after Sudhir Mishra's Khoya Khoya Chand.
The pair are back together for a film produced by Pritish Nandy Communications, that's currently being shot in Goa. The lead actors have been sworn to secrecy.
Ad man directing
When asked, PNC head honcho Pritish Nandy is surprised, "How did you hear about it? Yes, we're doing a start-to-finishu00a0 quickie with Soha and Shiney in Goa. It's tentatively titled Accident." The film is being directed by Abhijeet Chowdhury, a name to reckon with in the ad world. He made a Bengali film earlier, called Patal Ghar, which won the President's Gold Medal.
Blame the recession
Pritish Nandy says Chowdhury is shooting the film quietly without any announcement due to the recession. "At a time when no new films are being announced and big films are suffering for finances, we don't think it's right to start a film with any fanfare. Better to do it quietly. We complete Accident in 23 days."
However there's a deeper reason for the film being shot with such stealth. The plot is a thriller where the intricate twists and turns could be revealed by anyone who overhears a dialogue or captures a shot on his mobile camera. The producers want to avoid giving away the plot in any way even by Accident!
