“We are glad we did this. I’m really looking forward to the winners to be part of our production. Hopefully it all goes well. Hibiscus being it the 60th year is a great thing. I’ve learnt a lot of things about Fiji and I’m looking forward to our next movie Gangster to be shot here.”

Dr. Singh adds they are likely to looking cast the winner from the Queens category and the Kings category.

If all goes well, the two Fijians could have a leading role in the movie called Gangster.

Dreamz Production will release its current film Feeling Lucky on September 1st.
