'Mr X' has potential to be a franchise:
Emraan Hashmi says the story of his upcoming film "Mr X" calls for sequels but the possibility of a franchise will depend on its success at the box office. "Mr X", also starring Amyra Dastur, is a sci-fil movie that centres around an Anti-Terrorist Squad officer (Emraan), who undergoes a life-altering accident, which brings him face-to-face with his invisible powers. "The film has been designed to have a long run like 'Mr X 1', 'Mr X 2' and so on... But the final decision will depend on the box-office success of the first film," Emraan told PTI during a visit here. The 36-year-old actor clarified that his character in the film is not a superhero. "Many people are misconstruing it as a superhero but I will not put Mr X in that space. Whether he becomes like that will be known if there is a trilogy. Mr X is not a superhero because if I compare him Batman, he would still think before killing Joker but Mr X won't think before killing someone," Emraan said. Produced by Mahesh Bhatt's Vishesh Films and presented by Fox Star Studios, "Mr X" releases on April 17 in 3D and 2D.
