"I think it is a tough job to make a good film... The reason behind making the film is Mr. Bachchan. I have worked with almost all actors but I still considered myself unlucky that I didn't get a chance to work with Amitji." Bazmee said at the announcement of the sequel.


'Aankhen 2' is a sequel to the 2002 heist thriller drama film 'Aankhen' which was directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah and featured Big B, Akshay Kumar, Sushmita Sen and Arjun Rampal.

"'Aankhen' was really a good film as it had a tremendous concept. So when Gaurang Doshi came to me with the film I immediately agreed," he added.

Bazmee shared that his dream to work with the 73-year-old cine icon is full filled now.

'This time my attempt is to make a bigger and better sequel.' added the 'Welcome' helmer.

Asked about the genre of the film, he said: ''Aankhen 2' will be a thriller, but with a good amount of humour.'

Actors Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi and Ileana D'Cruz have joined Arjun Rampal and Amitabh in 'Aankhen 2'.
