Mike Tyson found himself inspired recently — not from eating the flesh of another man, but by the energy on the set of a music video that was being shot for a new Bollywood film. Firoz Nadiadwala, a producer of Bollywood diamond robbery film Fool n Final, approached the former heavyweight boxing champion with a script.
"Firoz has discussed a movie with me," The Times of India quoted Tyson as saying. "We seriously intend to work toward it," he said.
Tyson shook his booty to Bollywood music at a two-day shoot in Las Vegas last month for a music video to promote "Fool n Final". He plays himself in the video that is slated to be released later this month.
"The atmosphere was very congenial, happy and energetic," Tyson said.
A judge in Phoenix gave Tyson permission to travel to Las Vegas to shoot the music video. Tyson is facing charges of drug possession and driving under the influence of drugs for an arrest last year. In February, Mike Tyson completed a stint in Wonderland Rehab, where representatives raved Tyson to be, "the humblest, sweetest, and most genuinely considerate celebrities." Bless his dear little heart.
