Akshay Kumar's film may be titled Joker but instead of hunting for a circus arena, currently the film is looking for a mad house. This hunt for the makers has become even more crucial after the demise of film's art director Samir Chanda last week.

"After a schedule each in Chandigarh and Mumbai, Joker enters its third schedule in September.Director Shirish Kunder as well as Chanda were yet undecided on whether they wanted to shoot in a real asylum or instead construct a set in-house. 

"Shirish had been mighty impressed with Chanda's work since he came up with quick solutions that were value for money. Since the film has a fantasy element to it, the sets are supposed to be unique. Moreover, since the film would be presented in 3D, art design becomes all the more crucial to the film as well as mighty challenging. A decision would have to be taken pronto though since Akshay Kumar's dates come at a premium and the makers can't afford any slippages whatsoever. 

"He was supposed to travel to Pune for a Recce with Chanda as there is an asylum out there which could be a possible location for the film's shoot. However due to Chanda's sudden death, those plans have been kept on hold.After all a film like Joker needs a certain vision that should match with that of the director", says a close associate of Shirish.
