47 Scripts, 6 Years & 1 Delhi Belly Later Abhinay Deo Is Back With Blackमेल

After the success of Aamir Khan Productions’ Delhi Belly, Abhinay Deo returns as the director of a yet another quirky comedy Blackमेल.

Abhinay Deo took a long seven-year period to pick up his next comedy directorial after Delhi Belly, as the filmmaker wished to get the right script which would match up to his debut directorial.

Talking about the same, director Abhinay Deo said, “Delhi Belly was an amazing script, and after the massive success of the film, I was looking for a script that would be at par if not better, and then finally 47 scripts and 6 years later I found the one. The moment I read the script, I knew that Blackmail was the film I wanted to make next.”

Starring Irrfan Khan in the lead, the teaser of Blackमेल released on Valentine’s day and took the internet by storm. Showcasing a bare-chested Irrfan Khan running around the streets in nothing more than boxer shorts, the teaser intrigued the audience to know the story of a man covering his face with a bra and panty paper bag.
