What is Baaz?
It is actually a romantic thriller. There is a killer on the prowl who is doing his hatchet job in scenic Nainital. Many pretty girls end up getting kidnapped and losing their lives. Karisma Kapoor becomes the next victim, and it is up is three guys — Jackie Shroff, Dino Morea and me to save her life. It is a decently made film. I think [director] Tinu Verma has handled the subject better this time than in Maa Tujhe Salaam, where it was action all the way [Verma is a long-time action choreographer]. In Baaz, there was no scope to get carried away. The endeavour was to thrill and shock. Considering he spoke so badly about you after you dropped out of Maa Tujhe Salaam, why did you agree to work with Tinu Verma? He spoke against me, he apologised. When I heard the script of Baaz, I decided to do it. This one made sense. The rest that came my way were inane. I have never done a suspense thriller before. And this one was one with Karisma, whom I worked with about ten years ago. Does Baaz r
