Mumbai: A sequel to Poonam Pandey-starrer 'Nasha' will go on floors this year, says its director Amit Saxena.
"Yes, we are already in talks about the sequel. Most probably I will be directing the sequel and I would be more than happy if Poonam is there in 'Nasha 2' as well. The sequel will not be a continuation, but it will explore sensuality just like 'Nasha'," Saxena, known for directing 'Jism', told IANS.
"The sequel is in its initial stage. I have just got the basic idea of the script, so let's see how things fall into place. The film will go on floors by the end of this year," he added.
'Nasha' marks debut of Poonam as well as Shivam. ...
