Nana Patekar to direct Ab Tak Chhapan sequel

MUMBAI: After having a fallout with director Sahil Saple who later quit the scene, Ram Gopal Varma has entrusted directorial duties of his sequel of Ab Tak Chappan to lead actor Nana Patekar.

Confirming the news, Varma said, “Yes, now Nana is directing the sequel. Sahil had some other script that he wanted to do. So, we decided to hand it over to Nana.”

It was earlier reported that Patekar was ghost directing the project. It is now learnt that Saple opted out of the film as he was against taking fake credit for the film. So he opted out of the project.

It may be remembered that Varma‘s sequel had been embroiled in controversies for some reason or the other.
