Riteish Deshmukh, who has an outstanding timing for comedy and who has been seen in comedy films mostly, now says that he need to move on to the next level and that's crime thrillers.
The actor will soon be seen in the sequel to Masti, opposite the original cast Vivek Oberoi and Aftab Shivdasani and will soon go on the floors. He says, it's high time he stops doing sequels and concentrate on dramas and thrillers.
"My next film will be 'Masti 2′. I will start shooting in the first week of August," Riteish Deshmukh told.
"It is myself, Aftab and Vivek in the film. It's my fourth film with Indra Kumar I feel like I am married to him," Riteish, told.
"This is my third sequel and then the fourth one will come, then I will stop doing sequels because all the comedies that I am doing are sequels – Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum (a sequel to 'Kyaa Kool Hai Hum') and 'Masti 2′. I have not done a new comedy."
"In fact, in my case, it has been the other way round. 'Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya' happened and it was a rom com where Genelia (D'Souza) is more aggressive character. Thankfully, it worked."
"Obviously these series of films that I am doing are sequels, they are brands and they are bound to be comedy. After these films things have changed because people's perception has changed so now I am looking forward to do one drama and one crime thriller."
Riteish's next film is "Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum".
