Filmmaker Milan Luthria, who is returning to the big screen with actor duo Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi for "Baadshaho", says he is not afraid of the comparisons being made with their previous outing "Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai", which was also a period film starring the two actors. The director says the setting of the film is completely different from that of the 2010 hit. "Even if people feel the hangover of 'Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai' looking at 'Baadshaho' it's ok. I don't fear that comparison (referring to story and recreating the success of the film) as both the stories are completely different," Milan told. The slick-looking new Ajay Devgn, Ileana D'Cruz, Esha Gupta, Vidyut Jamwal and Emraan Hashmi starrer Baadshaho has also  come out completely unscathed with a U/A certificate. In spite of many action scenes and a prolonged love-making sequence, not a single frame or dialogue was touched from the two hour, 16 minute film. The board members apparently felt the film’s action and tender scenes were done in the spirit of “great fun”. 

Baadshaho is all set for a release on September 1.
