‘Basra’ has the Deol boy picking up the new task as he turns producer. The young lad hadn’t witnessed more hits as an actor and he’s sure to win laurels wearing this new hat. His first production ‘Basra’ boasts off being an edge-seated action thriller with a gripping tale with the right mix of action, romance and comedy.

Says Abhay: “I am actually fond of experimenting with films and ‘Basra’ would be a best illustration out for it…” The film will hit the floors by Jan 2010 and Abhay has signed deal with Navdeep Singh of ‘Manorama Six Feet Under’ to wield the megaphone while Shahana Goswami and another girl will star opposite him in the female lead role.

Ask Deol what actually urged him to become a producer and he says, “Much really, I was fed up with my previous films like Manorama, where everyone had done a great job including Navdeep. But, producers’ unwillingness to promote the film in right terms resulted in failures. Precisely, I would like to promote the best contents of the sort and entertain the audiences.”
