TV actor Deven Bhojani to direct an action film

New Delhi: TV actor-director Deven Bhojani, who has won many accolades for helming popular sitcom "Sarabhai vs Sarabhai", wants to make his big screen directorial debut with an action film.

"I have already started working on the script of my first film. It will be an action project but it will still take some time to start the work," Deven told PTI.

Famous for portraying "Gattu" in "Baa Bahoo Aur Baby" the actor, who hails from the theatre background, said he likes to explore himself as an artiste.

"I love to explore myself and try new thing. That is why I went to US to study filmmaking and enrolled myself in one of the best institute of Hollywood where people like Steven Spielberg and James Cameron come as guest speakers," said the "Dekh Bhai Dekh" actor.

Deven is currently on board as one of the directors of sitcom "Sumit Sambhal Lega", the official Hindi adaptation of hit American series "Everybody Loves Raymond". He had a great time working with veteran actor-filmmaker Satish Kaushik on the show.

"Satish ji is a very senior actor and filmmaker and on the first day of shoot I was little cautious about it as I did not know him in person. But he made me very comfortable as from the very first scene he realised my forte. He gave me full liberty and never came with a baggage of his seniority," he said.
