His
most recent claim to fame may rest on his
dancing skills, but Nach Baliye champ
Sachin is back to his first love - filmmaking.
Sachin is flying out to Bangalore on Monday
to begin shooting for a Kannada feature film....the
first for the child star turned director,
who's done several Marathi films till date.

Two
to tango - Sachin and Supriya |
But this time Sachin will not be seen on
screen, and will wield only the directorial
baton instead. How well versed in Kannada
is he, we wonder. "Oh, hardly, but
then they insisted that they wanted me to
direct the film!" laughs the dance
champion.
As with Sachin's other films, even the Kannada
flick will belong to the comedy genre. This
isn't all. He already has two more Marathi
films lined up for shooting, before he takes
up the project he announced just after the
Nach Baliye finals - a Marathi feature
film titled Aamhi Satpute, that will
star him and wife Supriya.
The film was conceived by Sachin earlier
this year, but received a boost after the
couple was selected to be part of Nach
Baliye 16 weeks ago. Says Sachin, "Nach
Baliye changed our entire mindset. Within
six weeks of beginning our rehearsals, I
had the entire first draft of the script
written."
