Mohit Suri, the director, says that his forthcoming movie ‘Crook’ is based on real incident. The same is going to release on coming Friday, October 8, 2010. Suri adds that ‘Crook’ is based on a real incident of racial discrimination that occurred while they were shooting in Australia for their another film. The director recalls that one day they had a day off so they went for a party in a pub. But they were not allowed inside as an Indian bouncer told them that there was no space. However, they witnessed that Australians were being allowed to enter. This personal experience helped him in improvising the script of `Crook` a lot, as it deals with racial attacks on Indians in Australia.
The director further says that he didn’t decide to make a movie on the subject after reading reports of discrimination in the media. In fact, he himself went to a store in Australia where the first major racial attack had taken place. He was shocked to learn that an Indian was brutally beaten up there because of his color and religion. Though he is eagerly awaiting ‘Crook’s release, but meanwhile intends to start working on his next film ‘Murder 2’.
