Bollywood director duo Abbas-Mustan, who are known for making thriller films, now plan to explore the genres of romance and comedy.

The duo have made Baazigar, Ajnabee, Aitraaz and Race among others in this genre, which have turned out to be hits.

Like their contemporary filmmakers who are trying to make out-of-box films these days, Abbas-Mustan also want to experiment with different film genres.

“Thriller films have made us what we are today. We are thankful to the audience for the love and acceptance to our films. Such films should be gripping. People should get excited to see what is going to happen next. It is important for the audience to understand and connect with the flow of the film,” the duo said.

According to them, thriller films have come a long way in Bollywood. However, the filmmakers made it clear that they do not intend to make adult comedy films.

“No sex comedy films for us. We want to make clean films. We want to make family entertainer films. We cannot comment on other films which are being made,” they added.

Abbas-Mustan will be working with Amitabh Bachchan on a murder mystery. However, their project with actor Saif Ali Khan doesn’t seem to be happening any time soon.

“There is a murder mystery with Mr Bachchan, no Saif film as of now, and then there are a couple of other projects that are in planning stage,” the duo said.
