Drive (2011) Film Review, a movie directed by Nicolas Winding Refn and starring Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, Ron Perlman, Christina Hendricks, Oscar Isaac, Albert Brooks, Tina Huang, Joe Pingue, Cesar Garcia, James Biberi, Jeff Wolfe, Sarah Adela Tirado, Christian Cage, and Tiara Parker.

If mutual friends are to be believed there’s considerable tension between Sunny Deol and producer Subhash Ghai over the completion and release of Right Yaa Wrong.
Apparently Sunny Deol and Ghai are constantly at loggerheads over the long-delayed project.
Says a source close to the project, “The release of the Subhash Ghai-Sunny Deol project keeps getting postponed repeatedly. This is affecting Sunny’s own production The Man. Both have a common factor. Neeraj Pathak who directs Right Yaa Wrong co-directs The Man. The fate of one affects the other.”
