Mir's wackiness bags him the lead in Gaurav Pandey's next

Saala Swapnochor has the funnyman playing the lead; director plans to shoot in North Bengal from Jan despite Gorkhaland unrest
Gaurav Pandey is all for dreaming big. The Shukno Lanka maker, who���s ready with his Hanuman.com, is set to begin his next ��� SaalaSwapnochor ��� from January. Starring in the lead is funnyman Mir.
The film ��� a comedy ��� deals with a man, a tent and a road.���It���s a road movie. Life, after all, is a journey and roads always fascinate me. After I finished writing the script, I realized the one man fit to be my protagonist is Mir. It���s his larger-than-life wackiness that made me zero in on him. Helping me put the project together is Joy Ganguly,��� says Gaurav.
The director, who is planning to shoot in north Bengal, isn���t baffled by the current unrest in the Hills. ���By the time we begin to shoot, I���m hopeful that things will be a lot better. But then travel is what you achieve after a lot of trouble,��� he guffaws. The director says the film will have many characters, but the focus is on the road and the man who embarks on his journey. ���I���m yet to finalize the film���s heroine. I���m looking for a leading lady, who has a star quotient, but I���m yet to lock any name. Music will be scored by Jeet Gannguli.���
Ask the director if SaalaSwapnochor bears resemblances to Christopher Nolan���s Inception, where the thief (Leonardo DiCaprio) would infiltrate the subconscious of his targets and he says, ���Here swapno doesn���t stand for dreams, but aspirations. There���s absolutely no similarity.���
