Mumbai, Nov 17 (IANS): Actor Sunny Deol, who was eagerly looking forward to work in "Ghayal Returns", says the project has been jinxed, but he is determined to make it happen.

"Ghayal Returns" is a sequel to the 1990 revenge action drama "Ghayal" and Sunny's stock rose further in filmdom post Rajkumar Santoshi directed film's big box office success that time.

" 'Ghaya Returns' is something which I don't want to talk about because 'usko nazar lag gayi hai kisi ki' (evil spell has been cast on the project). But it is happening for sure," Sunny, who had teamed up with Meenakshi Seshadri and Raj Babbar in the original, told IANS.

The 57-year-old said he has been trying to make the part two ever since the original came out.

"First time, I was sure that we will make the film in the same year, but I don't know why it didn't happen. Second time when we tried, again it didn't happen. Now this is the third time and I will work on it again and I am certain that it will happen," said the actor who recently gave hits like "Apne" and "Yamla Pagla Deewana".

Earlier, he announced that Rahul Rawail will direct "Ghayal Returns", but now he refused to share the director's name. But now, the actor has decided to be tight-lipped about the project.

“Ghayal Returns” will begin from where “Ghayal” left.
