Amir Mokri To Shoot Akshay Kumar’s Next Thriller
When Iranian cinematography legend Amir Mokri saw Blue on Oct 9 on the ‘Clint Eastwood Recording Sound Stage No 6’ at the Warner Brothers Studios in Los Angeles, director Anthony (Tony) D’Souza, a huge self-confessed and unabashed fan of Mokri’s work played a little game with Mokri.

Says Tony, “Of course Amir recognized the shots immediately, I had seen the way actors Will Smith and Martin Lawrence zigzagged through windows and doors for a particular sequence in Bad Boys 2. I wanted to use those shots for a sequence between Sanjay Sir (Dutt) and Lara Dutta in Blue. I got in touch with Mokri and he instructed me and my cameraman on phone and email on how to go about doing the shots in a way that the camera seems to be hurling at the same speed as the characters. I think we got it right. Amir seemed to think so.”
Though Tony isn’t saying it, Mokri liked Blue enough to now to be a part of Tony’s next film, the aerial actioner with Akshay Kumar and John Abraham.
Though Tony isn’t telling, the news is Mokri would do the camerawork for that film.
