Actor turned director Pooja Bhatt went behind the cameras after giving her last screen appearance in film 'Everybody Says I\'m Fine!' After 13 long years, she is ready to return back to the silver screen palying a no-nonsense detective in Reema Kagti's film 'Mr. Chaalu'.

As per the sources, Reema wrote the script keeping Tabu in mind to play the detective's role. But, producers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani found Pooja to be more appealing to play the Desi Sherlock Holmes. Therefore, Ritesh messaged 'Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahin' actress asking "Are you still acting?", to which she shot back texting: "Once an actor, always an actor." And this is how Pooja's comeback got on steady wheels.

'Mr. Chaalu' stars Saif Ali Khan in a Casanova's character, while Kangana Ranaut plays his love interest and Richa Chadda appears another woman in their passoinate relationship. The film will go on the floor in early 2015.
